My day job is serving my state convention as their special needs ministry consultant. Every day I'm talking to churches about how to start or strengthen their disability ministries so every family has access to the gospel and a church home. In that role and at my own church where I serve as the Inclusion Coordinator for Special Needs Families, I think there are big changes coming to churches that will affect special needs families. There are also three opportunities that I'm excited about! Let's talk through those today so we can better understand what's happening in our churches and how our calling as missionaries to other caregivers has never been more important!
