"The Church is truly your home!” the Pope assures people with disabilities. “We, all of us together, are Church, because Jesus chose to be our friend . . . Everyone has a part to play; no one is a mere extra.” Hence, “each of you is also called to make his or her own contribution to the synodal journey” in “a participative and inclusive ecclesial process.”
