“Persons with disabilities challenge us to be more fully human and compassionate, to recognize the presence of God in each human being. This requires us to sacrifice, to ‘stretch our hearts,’ as Pope Benedict XVI has said. This requires us to gradually become more like Christ, which is after all the goal of every Christian life.
–“Life Matters: Persons with Disabilities,” USCCB Respect Life Program
