Making churches welcoming for everyone

A booklet aims to get Christians thinking about how their churches could be more welcoming for disabled people.

Creating Welcoming Churches was launched in Auckland in October 2014.

Rev Vicki Terrell, who chairs New Zealand’s Disability, Spirituality and Faith Network, which produced the resource, says, “No matter what a person’s station is in life, no matter what struggles they may be facing – or whether they come to church as a visitor or as part of the regular congregation, the environment needs to be welcoming.”

The booklet costs $10 plus $5 post and packaging and is available from ericar@paradise.net.nz.
