Called to be a hospitable church for all God's people

God, the Great Artist, has created a globe rich with diversity. Each person, flower, star and sea is beautiful and distinct. Disability and Deaf ministries recognize the beauty of each unique person and strives to provide information, resources and networking to help all of God's children to be included and celebrated in the Church. Please browse our page and contact us with any ideas, suggestion, or feedback.

But in fact God has arranged the parts in the body, every one of them, just as God wants them to be.

-- 1 Corinthians 12:18

Is my congregation talking about Mental Illness?

Mental Illness affects countless people in our churches.

They will also learn about the valuable resources Pathways to Promise is developing to help congregations support and minister to people with mental illness and their families. Learn More.
