We will have a guest preacher on Feb. 2. We welcome Rev. Wade Griffith, an elder in the United Methodist Church. Wade will be sharing about his work as the Executive Director of Shanta Foundation - a non-profit doing anti-poverty work & community building in Myanmar & beyond.
The adult Sunday School class will be discussing disability and the church. The book "My Body Is Not a Prayer Request: Disability Justice in the Church" will guide our discussions.
"Written by a disabled Christian, this book shows that the church is missing out on the prophetic witness and blessing of disability. Kenny reflects on her experiences inside the church to expose unintentional ableism and cast a new vision for Christian communities to engage disability justice. She shows that until we cultivate church spaces where people with disabilities can fully belong, flourish, and lead, we are not valuing the diverse members of the body of Christ.
"Offering a unique blend of personal storytelling, fresh and compelling writing, biblical exegesis, and practical application, this book invites readers to participate in disability justice and create a more inclusive community in church and parachurch spaces. Engaging content such as reflection questions and top-ten lists are included."
We meet on Sundays at 10 am in the Fellowship Hall.
