Although most people acknowledge it would be great if their church is a community where persons of all dis/abilities can thrive as saints and ministers of the gospel, it can be practically difficult for people to know how to start becoming that kind of community. This class offers foundational perspectives and practices to help your church start moving in this direction. It focuses on:
Session One – Led by Krista Ewert: Past and present language used to describe disability
Session Two – Led by Michael Morelli: What the Bible says about being human and what this means for us (people with and without disabilities)
Session Three – Led by Greg Harris: Why people with disabilities are more than people who need care—they’re people who can disciple other people
Session Four – Led by Kathy Dubbeldam: How we can take practical steps to become churches where everyone belongs and thrives
No prior experience or knowledge needed. Just your interest.
We’re meeting May 15; 22; June 15; and 26, from 11:30am-12:45pm.
