Special Religious Education and Pastoral Care for Persons with Developmental Disabilities<\/h3>\n

The Office of Special Religious Education and Pastoral Care for Persons with Developmental Disabilities provides parish-based religious education programs, tutoring in parishes not hosting specific programs, home visits, and the provision of resources to families, as needed. Liturgy and Sacraments are celebrated in all programs. \u201cAwareness Masses\u201d are also held in some parishes during the regular Sunday liturgy to celebrate and honor the special education families<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Pastoral Care<\/h4>\n

The Special Religious Education Office also provides a ministry of religious nurture to the residents of the Wheat Ridge Regional Center. Because these residents have severe\/profound disabilities they benefit best from a program of religious nurture and supportive Christian presence. End of life care and funerals are provided along with ongoing support to Ridge staff persons. Time spent with these residents includes prayer, singing and gentle presence.<\/p>\n
