🌟 Invisible Disabilities Week | October 19 - 25 2025 🌟

Not all disabilities are visible—and that doesn’t make them any less real. 💙

This week, we stand in solidarity with those living with invisible conditions like chronic pain, mental illness, autoimmune diseases, neurological disorders, and many more.

Just because you can’t see it, doesn’t mean it’s not there.

Let’s work together to:
✅ Raise awareness
✅ Break down stigma
✅ Foster compassion and understanding

To everyone living with an invisible disability: *We see you. We hear you. You matter.*

Read the proclaimation from Ohio Governor Mike DeWine and Lt. Governer Jim Tressel:

On this Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we honor the sacred stories, cultures, and enduring presence of Indigenous peoples.

As people of faith, we are called to walk humbly, seek justice, and love our neighbors.

We acknowledge the injustices Indigenous communities have faced and continue to face, and we commit ourselves to listening, learning, and working toward healing and reconciliation—guided by grace, truth, and love.

May our prayers be paired with action, and our remembrance with respect.
