It’s Autism Sunday!
February 10, 2013
I’ve only just learnt that Autism Sunday exists. Thanks for this very useful information must go to Ekklesia, who have also published full details.
As I understand it, the day is meant to celebrate Autism through prayer in a church setting. However, if you are not Christian, please celebrate Autism through your own method of prayer today.
If you are not religious, please find a positive way to celebrate Autism today to mark the day.

Same Difference 
It’s Autism Sunday (Pity Party at Church) by Kate Gladstone (autistic person)
It’s Autism Sunday, that one day a year
We welcome in fellowship “those folks” ’round here.
We pray to become more autistic-aware
On this one special Sunday: the rest, we don’t care.
We’ll pray for you all, you’re the cause of the week:
But please don’t imagine that you ought to speak.
We pray for you, speak for you, we shall decide —
We steer the course, you’re along for the ride.
We’ll pray you get healthcare and all of that stuff:
We’ll pray once again — now, that should be enough.
Sure, come here next Sunday if help you still seek,
And we will inform you: “We prayed that last week!”
The service is ended, we rush to the door.
Till Autism Sunday next year, we’ll ignore
The folks that we pray for, this one day a year:
It’s Autism Sunday, we’re _so_ glad you’re here!
