09. Disabilities Ministry

This currently small but valuable ministry at New Life supports members of our church with physical and mental disabilities. The disabilities ministry will continue to grow in importance in the years to come, as we reach our neighbors with disabilities and as our own core members grow older.

We sense God wanting to grow us in our ability to welcome and integrate people with physical and mental disabilities more meaningfully. We desire for them to be vital members of our congregation and community. We want to also support, serve, and encourage our elderly members well as they potentially transition from being able-bodied to needing more assistance or being disabled.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to New Life staff if you are interested in serving within this ministry. Please, also, do not hesitate to contact New Life staff if you need support for yourself or a family member with a physical or mental disability, or as you or a family member transitions from independence to requiring an interdependent team of supportive church family members.
