Worship Inclusion

The Worship Inclusion Committee's mission is to promote inclusive worship by monitoring, maintaining, and adapting the ways we welcome and include persons with disabilities. Its work has included expanding the use of large print bulletins, training ushers to maintain hearing devices, implementing more visible barrier-free signage and hosting workshops for those working with persons with disabilities. The Committee has also entered into on-going relationships with two adult foster homes in which we provide mentoring and fellowship to residents. Contact: Claire Bunker
