CONCLUSION
"My hope is that, through sharing my heart with you, you have been moved. Maybe there will be a child that will come through the door of your church this week and you will look at them differently. Hopefully, you will not look at them with the fears of starting a new ministry, but with a heart of compassion that simply wants to embrace them and all that God has made them to be. I promise you the journey will be amazing and you will be both changed and blessed!"
As a result of your small group discussions:
- What do you feel is the next step for your ministry in reaching out to all of the people that walk through your church doors?
- What simple accommodations can you make that will help people of all abilities feel welcome and comfortable?
- What can you do to help the culture of your church change in such a way that welcoming someone with a disability is part of the very fabric of your church?
- What aspect of growing in ministry makes you uncomfortable? What is your next step?
