Our Church is one of the few churches in our area that has a Special
Education Ministry for those who are mentally challenged, or have some
other type of special need. Our ministry to those with special needs and
their fa milies began when
our church was started, led by Herbert & Grace Bryant. There is a Sunday
School class each Sunday at 9:45 a.m. taught by Bob Patton & Grace
Bryant. Except for the summer months, the class participates in a
bowling league for Special Kids. They also have special activities
occasionally. The third Sunday in March is designated as "Special Kids
Sunday," and they take an active part in the morning worship service.
Every summer they enjoy a week-long Vacation Bible School in the
evenings. Each October the church provides a trip to the annual Eagle
Eyrie retreat, a statewide event of about 400 special kids and their
families. Each December they have a Christmas party. |
