Disability Ministry

Serving Children & Students with Disabilities Welcome to LIFT!

LIFT (Loving Individuals and Families Together) is the disability ministry at Grace Church. Our expert staff and volunteers partner with parents to deliver a customized experience for children and students to experience God, have fun in community, and meet their needs.

My Body is not a Prayer Request Book Study

Join Laura Mitchell and Dr. Milton Keys on Sunday, March 24 from 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. as we discuss the book My Body is Not a Prayer Request by Dr. Amy Kenny.

We will discuss excerpts from her book and the ways that her story, God's biblical teachings, and a different perspective can help us grow in striving to be a church that not only serves people with disabilities but is also served by them.

We will meet in the Leaf Cafe and it will be open for purchases.

Self-Contained Rooms

Each LIFT service includes worship, plus large group Bible teaching using dramas, video elements, games and other interactive activities. Our self-contained room might be right for your child if they:

  • Are in a self-contained classroom at school or attend a private ABA program 
  • Do better in a smaller more intentional setting 
  • Are more of a visual/interactive learner 
  • Have difficulty sitting through an hour of Bible discussion 
  • Have difficulty with transitions

Buddy Program

Buddies are high school or adult volunteers who love and assist students in the typical age appropriate room or small groups. A buddy might be right for your child if they:

  • Have an aide at school or mainstream majority of their school day 
  • Need to take frequent breaks 
  • Need extra help with socially appropriate behaviors 
  • Have physical limitations where a buddy would help provide safety

Moms Support Group

Join other women on the second Wednesday of each month for food, fellowship and community. We will talk together, pray together and share information about what it looks like to parent a child (young or old) with a disability. We will also be doing a book study of My Body is not a Prayer Request by Amy Kenny. The book will be provided for you!

This meeting will take place in our LIFT Adult room (E125) from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. Registration is encouraged but not required to attend. Please contact Laura Mitchell with questions.
