On Saturday, March 29 from 10:00 am-12:00 pm, all are invited for a special workshop with our guest preacher, Rev. Lindsay Lunnum. Rev. Lunnum joins us as we, a community of faith, work to welcome and understand the needs of all. This workshop will introduce the ministry of Rhythms of Grace, a curriculum which focuses on worship and faith formation for people with autism and neurodivergence. We will discuss the unique gifts and challenges that people with autism bring to our communities, explore theological ideas around disability, and offer some practical ways that parishes can share the knowledge and love of God with neuro-diverse people. This workshop is open to all, including clergy, lay leaders, congregants, those in other faith homes, and those in our greater communities. Registration is requested.
