"But in fact God has arranged the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be. The eye cannot say to the hand, "I don't need you!" And the head cannot say to the feet, "I don't need you!" On the contrary, those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable."

1 Corinthians 12:18, 20-22

The vision of this new portion of the Evangelical Covenant Church's website is to network, educate, and resource churches so that persons with disabilities and their families are effectively served and fully included in the life and ministries of the Covenant and their local communities.

Check out these featured ministry components:

• Disability Ministry Network - see what other churches are doing in the field of Disability Ministries and contact them to jump start your own ministry.  
• Accessibility - check out descriptions of what it means to be accessible and assess the accessibility of your congregation with the "Indicators of Welcome"
• Ministry Tools - find a variety of resources for your own ministry, including forms used by other churches in the ministries to children with special needs, documents and articles on disability ministries, print resources, and websites
• Spiritual Issues in Chronic Illness and Disability - download the course description and see if you would like to attend the one-week class at North Park University in June of 2008.
