Our Prayer:
that children with special needs and their families
will become full participants and contributors in the body of Christ
- We intentionally share the Good News of Jesus Christ with children who have special needs and help them grow in their faith.
- We welcome, support, and include those with special needs and their families into the fellowship of the church.
- We reach out to the community and provide a safe and loving environment where children with special needs can worship God and learn about Jesus Christ.
- We nurture each child’s individual skills and abilities while helping them experience the love of Christ in a way that is accessible to them.
Luke 14:13-14 But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the just.
Exodus 4:11 Then the LORD said to him, “Who has made man’s mouth? Who makes him mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, the LORD?
