THE HOLY SEE has designated Jubilee Days throughout 2025 to recognize and celebrate different groups of people and various ministries in the Church. Pope Francis’ message to people with disabilities at the 2022 International Day of Persons with Disabilities: “We come to realize that we exist as an us and not a them whenever disability, whether temporary or due to natural aging, affects ourselves or someone for whom we care. Then we begin to look at reality with new eyes and we see the need to break down even those barriers
that at first seemed insignificant. Nothing, however, can detract from our certainty that no disability – temporary, acquired or permanent – can change the fact that we are all children of the one Father and enjoy the same dignity. The Lord loves us all with the same tender, fatherly and unconditional
love.”
