Evangelism
  Romans 10:17 says, "Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." One of our ministry's greatest desires is to encourage people with developmental disabilities in their Christian faith. How can they believe, though, if they have not heard?
   The gospel message of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ is meant for all people. Jesus commanded us to go into all the world and make disciples of all nations... or "groups" of people. (Matthew 28:16-20) There are no physical or intellectual barriers that can prevent God's word from accomplishing His purposes in the hearts of those who receive it for what it is.   (Isaiah 55:10-11 and
1 Thessalonians 2:13)
   As Christians, you and I are called to be
ambassadors, bringing the good news to people.  We cannot be effective witnesses for Jesus without sharing His word. Some might say that the Bible is too abstract for people with developmental disabilities to understand. Consider the kinds of people that responded to the Lord's word while He was with us... you'll be reminded that lame people, blind people, deaf people... even dead people, listened and responded to the power of God's word.
   If you would like information or help in sharing the gospel message with someone
who has special needs, please contact us.
We would love to offer any assistance that we can. Remember that it is
our job to plant the seed of God's word, and to water it... But it is God who accepts the responsibility of causing the growth,
(1 Corinthians 3:7)
There's plenty of room at the cross,
no matter what our abilities!
