This paper engages David Fitch’s idea of faithful presence with the lived experiences of autism to explore how the church can embody the concept of unity in diversity. To belong as God’s family with people considered the least among us begins with seeing them as persons, not projects. Next, the power differential in a giver-receiver relationship needs to be addressed. Then, following the lead of the Spirit into Christ’s presence, church members submit to one another mutually and equally, receiving each other as gifts of God. Finally, as the body of Christ, we tend to Christ in our shared life inside and outside the church. In the process, all in the body encounter Christ, who transforms our hearts towards loving one another, desiring to share each other’s burdens and joy, thus becoming one in Christ.
