Happy Fall everyone! ( well not quite haha)
Fall is my favorite time of the year, and one reason for that is with the cooler weather I seem to have a lot more energy. Rehearsals for the Christmas Carol will begin in a couple of weeks, I’m hosting some awesome events that I encourage you to join me at, and I also have many ways for you to get involved!
So here we go... but First...
Last month I went to visit Charlie Shaw (Associate Pastor At Oaks Parish) in Portland, and his wife Bekah. I enjoy this trip every year. This time I had the opportunity to sit down with the whole Oaks Parish staff and discussed ways to welcome people with different abilities into their congregation. One of these ways we discussed was to create an outdoor sign letting wheelchair users and others who need better access know, “Hey, we see you and your welcome here."
Oaks Parish staff went to work, and not even after a week of being back home, they’ve produced a sign!!! Thanks, team for sending me on this fruitful trip! The conversations with so many on disability, theology, leadership, fears, and hopes that was started will be ongoing throughout the year.
So what is Going Down???
