                  Engaging in Real - Time
                     to the Catholic Mass


                    Evangelii Gaudium


  “If we are to be transformed by grace
 and led to a deeper communion with the
 Lord, both the preacher and the hearer must be
 engaged.”

How do you make it Inclusive to all those who are deaf and hard of hearing?




"However, in order to serve ALL deaf, hard of hearing, 

the hearing impaired or people with hearing loss 

(whichever terms you choose), all of these accessible 

solutions need to be provided, and the Deaf and 

hearing impaired should always be placed down front 

where they can use their eyes to see to hear and the 

audio amplifiers to be picked up by their assistive 

devices. Captions should be on the wall or a screen for

 those who need to read what is being said."

"What does it mean for communication to be “effective”? Simply put, “effective communication” means that whatever is written must be as clear and understandable to people with disabilities as it is for people who do not have disabilities."

"Accessible meeting space allows

 everyone to participate."
