For a church to be truly hosptiable and loving to families experiencing disability, this biblical truth has to be championed by leaders.

If you live in the PNW, do you know a family experiencing disability who has never joined us to be refreshed at a Retreat at Cannon Beach? Or maybe that family is you!

We still have spaces open for more families September 25th-28th. Register here! https://theguidelight.org/retreats

(And if you'd like to volunteer to serve these amazing families that weekend, send us a message!)

Following Jesus means welcoming those He welcomed. Churches can inadvertently but effectively close the door in the face of families experiencing disability. It's one of the major reasons why up to 50% of families experiencing disability don't attend church. Guidelight is here to help. Here are 3 simple ways you can open the door wide to these families:

1) If you see a person with a disability coming into your church, make eye contact with them and introduce yourself. Ask their family if they'd like to sit next to you in service.

2) Attend a Guidelight Training event in your area (keep your eyes peeled for registration information coming soon!). You'll gain theological understanding of God's heart for disability and practical tools for integrating families experiencing disability into your church body.

3) Support our work. Every day, Guidelight provides free training videos or on-the-ground help to churches all over the world. You equip more and more of the global church to be the hands and feet of Christ with each gift.

The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.”...If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together. Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it.
-1 Corinthians 12:21, 26-27

"For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well."
-Psalm 139: 13-14
