The In Between

Practicing Accessibility & Inclusion in God's Beloved Community!


Listen Later

Have you ever felt left out? Can you remember a moment where you experienced the wide open welcome of Jesus? The kingdom of God is marked by a noticeable erasure of outsider/insider categories - not just in theory, but in practice.

Do you want to be part of a community that is demonstrating that welcome to folks who very often don't receive it in our world? Us too!!

Listen in and be inspired as Julia speaks with two amazing women who are a part of our inclusion ministries which is made up of folks serving and discipling (and being served and discipled) with neurodivergence, developmental or intellectual disabilities. Paige is a member of VC who loves to worship, to serve, and who is a beloved part of this ministry area. Amanda Fessehazion leads this ministry area as well as serves as the Director of our newly launched (just this week!) Accessibly & Inclusion Ministry (AIM) Day Services.

Thanks to the generous seed money from VC's Kingdom Builders – a group of members who want to give above and beyond their tithe to redemptive, impactful projects like this one – and with a sustainable model relying on fee-for-service and Medicaid billing, AIM Day Services will provide a safe and enriching space for adults affected by disability. Imagine a place where participants can engage in worship, devotions, art, fitness, music, outings, and so much more! Plus, they'll have the incredible opportunity to develop employability skills by partnering with our café, facilities team, the bookstore, and other ministries. The program will operate Monday through Friday, from 9 am to 3 pm. This remarkable achievement is the result of the tireless dedication of Amanda Fessehazion and her amazing team, Sherry Chapin and Freddie Losambe. Since September 2024, they've poured their hearts into this God-inspired vision, visiting other centers, researching best practices, completing over 40 hours of specialized training, crafting an engaging program calendar, building enrollment processes, mastering Medicaid billing, and connecting with future participants. Building a program of this scale from the ground up is no small feat, and we are incredibly proud of their hard work and commitment.
