We are in the midst of Rēneti/Lent, and this second package of resources from Disability Ministry Education invites people to continue to reflect on the reality of living in our bodies. The main theme is “How to live more fully.”
Impairment/disability is often seen as wholly negative. However, living with limitation is part of being human. Experiencing our limitations can lead us into life on a deeper level. Sharing these experiences can help us all become aware as to how limitations/impairment are gifts to our communities.
It is hoped that these posters may encourage korero/discussion/talanoa around how do we regard our bodies as part of God’s good creation.
In this package there are posters for Lent 4, Lent 5, Rātapu Nīkau/Palm Sunday, Taite Mone/Maundy Thursday, Paraire Pai/Good Friday, and Te Rā o te Aranga/Easter Day.
The Disability Ministry Educators welcome any feedback you may want to give on these resources. Contact The Rev’d Vicki Terrell or Cherryl Thompson. They are available to come and meet with groups.
All posters are on the Social Justice Unit’s website under Disability Ministry Resources.
