The liturgical service and the readings will have as their protagonists people with disabilities, and in particular among the altar servers there will be a number of people with Down syndrome and intellectual disabilities. One of the deacons, German, is deaf, the first reading will be read by a disabled Spanish person, and the second will be read in English in Braille by a blind child. All the readings will be translated into international sign language by deaf people from various countries, and the prayers of the faithful in different languages will be read by sick and disabled people of various nationalities. Then, for the first time in St. Peter’s Square, the Gospel reading will be dramatized by a group of people with intellectual disabilities, to enable the text to be understood by pilgrims with mental and intellectual disabilities.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Here’s the dramatized Gospel – it’s Luke beginning at 7:36.<\/p>\n
