Episode 330: An Especially Needed Ministry (from Episode 15)
Here is the major question you have to wrestle with - will our church do "Ministry to" or "Ministry team"
Where to start
Start with a conversation -
Make sure to have a line of communication with family members
Have those with limitations - take you on a tour of your church
Work on access - make your buildings accessible
all on one level
Ramps and elevators - legal issues in new buildings
playgrounds
bathrooms
wide doors
Certain paint colors and media issues
Invite those folks to participate and make it possible
We have started with children - making it easy for them to participate in musicals
Camp - whole nutha animal - Falls creek
Adults - its harder to get them involved - but ask and don't give up.
Our goal is to create as many pathways for service as possible
Love 1 God, Love All People
- who in your church is underserved?
