Blessings Mission Statement:
to support the spiritual, physical and emotional needs of persons with disabilities and their families from the point of diagnosis through the life of the individual.
Sunday Morning Opportunities:
- Blessings Class: This is a self-contained classroom for individuals who are new to our program. This gives us the opportunity to get to know you, your family and what your needs are. This is also a classroom for individuals not able to be fully supported in inclusive morning programs. This class is during our 10:30 service. We encourage you to contact us prior to your attending in order to help us know what you need before you come. This is not required – just helpful!
- The Buddy Program: This program pairs a one-on-one assistant with a child with a disability to support their success in inclusive environments.
- Peer Buddy: This program pairs a typical peer with a child in need of minimal support in inclusive environments.
- Deaf Ministry: Interpreters are available for the 10:30am service. They are located to the right of the stage in the worship center. Click HERE for more details about our Deaf Ministry.
