Special Needs Ministry
Special Needs Ministry
Our mission is to empower and provide support to individuals with special needs and their families by facilitating an accepting community in which to grow in their relationship with Jesus.
Our program provides individualized support during weekend services to ensure everyone has the opportunity to participate in their specific ministry environment. Additionally, we encourage individuals with special needs to serve their church community at a level that is appropriate for them. Everyone is welcome!
Night to Shine is Back IN PERSON

Pizza will be served for dinner. The next Parents’ Night Out event will be at the Raleigh campus from 6:00-8:00 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 15.
