Building Communities of Belonging - Worship for All

Including people with learning disabilities in worship? Everyone benefits! This session is full of ideas from Prospects Across Scotland.
About this Event

Prospects Across Scotland is a small Christian charity with a big dream! We want to see all churches in Scotland encouraged, enabled and equipped to welcome adults with learning disabilities - not just to come along, but to use their God-given gifts and participate fully in the life of the church.

We support churches to make small changes to their services or to run Christian fellowship groups especially for adults with learning disabilities and autism.

In this session we will learn about learning disabilities and what the Bible has to say, we will cover many practical issues and share ideas which could be incorporated into worship on a Sunday, or used to hold fully inclusive services or celebrations. We have many years of experience of this in Prospects and look forward to sharing this unique and beautiful way of worshipping together.

Worship for All really is that! When we open up worship for people with learning disabilities, many others benefit too - children, new Christians, those who find traditional services difficult due to a variety of health issues or life stages - as one church leader said recently 'That was the best service we've had in ages!'

All welcome - come and be inspired!
