IMG_5999Register now for the 2016 Local Church Representatives (LCR) Training “Special Needs Ministry & Your Church” on Saturday, September 17, 2016 from 10am- 2pm at Strongsville United Methodist Church.

Our goal is to start a conversation about how you can best serve persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities in your congregation and community and to arm you with the necessary resources to start (or grow) your own special needs ministry.

All church leaders, pastors, children’s ministry directors, youth ministry directors, lay leaders, Sunday School volunteers and all who want to make a difference in the lives of persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities in their congregation and community are welcome to attend. There is no registration fee and lunch will be provided.IMG_5991
