That's why we, as a church have created an exclusive ministry, just for families who have children who have special needs. We are calling it the My Buddy Ministry. What the My Buddy Ministry consists of, is individuals being placed with your child so they can participate in the children's ministry classroom. Should your child not be able to participate in the classroom setting, we will be offering the Sensory Room, which they will be accompanied by the Buddy.
The My Buddy Ministry is available on Sunday mornings in room 25.
If you are a parent with a child who has special needs and you would like them to participate in the My Buddy Ministry, see Bernie and Mary Ann Brizuela at any one of our services.
