Series: Celebrating Diversity: Encountering God in Disability
March 03, 2024 | Rev. Brooke Heerwald Steiner
The number one aspect of a child's life that indicates whether they will stay connected to their faith after graduating high school is if they were included in worship alongside their families. This is just one of the reasons why our children's interactive worship services are so important. This week, all ages will worship together alongside Scott Searl from ICA. Scott will talk about the important work of our local foodshelf and how we can partner with them in addressing food insecurity in our community. We'll hear the words of Jesus "I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink."
Series Information
Disabled people are full members of the body of Christ. Unfortunately, this is not always the reality experienced in churches. Ableism, discrimination that favors able-bodied people, has taught us to view disability as brokenness instead of sacredness. Throughout Lent, we’ll be examining disability through a different lens: one that celebrates disability and values the gifts it brings to our faith community.
