Access to the Land of the Bible
|
|
A unique program of travel and study in the Holy Land, designed especially for persons with physical disabilities.
|
Access to the Land is a non-academic program of Bible study made accessible to persons living with physical disabilities. It is the realization of a dream by Fr. Donald Senior, CP, New Testament professor and current President of Catholic Theological Union, and Stauros U.S.A. founder, the late Fr. Flavian Dougherty, CP. In the words of Fr. Senior, "For many people with disabilities, their suffering is not their disability itself but, rather, the barriers and negative attitudes society puts in their way. We named our program 'Access to the Land' because we want to demonstrate that people with disabilities should have the same access to the sources of our faith as anyone else."
