Did you know….
.
• That approximately 53 mission people in the US and 15% of teens have a disability?
• That 95% of those with disabilities are unchurched?
• That many families in our community with children or young adults at home who have disabilities have stopped attending church because they don’t feel welcome or it just “doesn’t work”?
.
Jesus said, “Whoever welcomes one of these (children) in my Name welcomes me.” Church of the Ascension has a loving heart and a welcoming attitude toward individuals with disabilities and their families. In the fall of 2008, God led us to establish a ministry that builds bridges to bring people affected by disability to Jesus.
.
We offer two programs for those with cognitive disabilities: A weekly Sunday school program called WINGS; and a monthly club called Young Life Capernaum.
