Approaching Disability : Pastoral History and Practice Analyzed Through the Models of the Church

How have people with disabilities been part of the pastoral life of the Church throughout history? This undoubtedly is a brad and multi-layered question that demands critical analysis across its complex facets. First o all, the very notion of disability is to be problematized. Moving beyond disability, the very notion of a history of the "life of the Church" might sound like an all-encompassing exhaustive statement that actually is only part of a much wider and shifting story. The article works with these critical understandings and questions and analyse the Church's pastoral approach - both theoretical and practical - towards disability. To avoid writing a totalizing historical narrative that overly simplifies history and trumps upon all the unrecognized and silent "littles histories", the option is not for a chronological presentation of Church disability history. The article explores the Church's understanding and action as it pertains to disability making use of Avery Dulles' six models of the Church. And does not seek to give exhaustive historical account, but rather seeks to present historical moments, themes, persons and practices pertinent to the theme so as to elicit both some understanding of the past but also encourage critical questions moving forward.
