Sacramentals are signs of the faith. They include things like art, rosaries, medals, and holy cards and can aid in the sanctification of men and women (Catechism of the Catholic Church 1670). In this episode, Allison Gingras shares her experience of becoming the mother of her daughter, Faithy, through adoption. Allison explains how she incorporated sacramentals into catechizing Faithy, who is profoundly deaf, about our Catholic faith. Her story will inspire any catechist and reminds us to explore the richness of sacramentals especially when teaching children with disabilities.
