England: Church Trains Leaders on Access to the Gospel for Disabled

Aiming to lift barriers that might limit access to the gospel for the disabled in their local communities, 17 church leaders from the South England region of the Seventh-day Adventist Church participated in the first in a series of disability training programs in Bracknell, England. The Feb. 27 program entitled “Making Your Church Community More Accessible” was organized by the Adventist Special Needs Association, an organization run by lay volunteers.  At the end of the session each delegate identified at least three achievable steps towards changing policies, procedures and practices relevant to their home church.
