Start with Hello: Introducing Your Church to Special Needs Ministry

The Irresistible Church

by Kate Brueck

Do you want your church to be a place of belonging? Do you want your church to be Irresistible? An Irresistible Church is an authentic community built on the hope of Christ that compels people affected by disability to fully belong. Start with Hello was written with the goal of introducing your church to disability ministry and training churches on how to lead a special needs ministry. Everyone – adults, special needs children, typical teens – wants to feel like they belong. This booklet gives practical advice on how to create an inclusive church. The best disability insurance one can have is belonging to a local church body that will love, embrace and support those affected by disability. Will your church open their doors and their hearts to individuals affected by disability? The joy and life that come from this openness will surprise and bless church leaders across the world.

This is an excellent booklet, and it is filled with practical and helpful advice. This booklet will take you through five steps to help you start a ministry for those with special needs in your church. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if those with disabilities, special needs, and chronic illnesses were embraced as am indispensable part of the body of Christ? As this booklet says, “Such a church would be irresistible.”
