Being Pro Life
Autism: The Invisible Disorder
This is the eighth episode in a monthly series from the Office for Respect Life Ministries called Being Pro Life. This month's episode features interviews with several guests, who share their stories of what it is like to bring a child with autism spectrum disorder to church, specifically Catholic Mass, and religious education. They encourage people to be more understanding and inviting, rather than treat them as disturbing and unwelcome. They also share ways parishes can be more prepared to serve these families, including how to make Mass more friendly.
