In this first week of Advent, we celebrate the hope that Jesus’s birth, and life, brings us. The God of Hope’s incarnation means we can overflow with hope, even in the middle of a cold winter.

This #WorldChildrensDay, let's remember that the rights of children must be upheld every day. We especially see how human rights, like education and participation in cultural life, are too often ignored for kids with disabilities.
We can do better. #ForEveryChild, every right!

We can’t leave these populations behind any longer. Visit https://t.co/W2cwcTIXiF to learn how you can help.

As #DEAM2023 comes to a close, we want to share this reflection from our Disability and Faith Forum. "The contributions we make complement another’s contributions – they are not in competition with them and foster interdependence over independence."
