A Place for All: Faith and Community for Persons with Disabilities

Bishop Peggy Johnson (see photo at left from the documentary) has a lead interview as part of an extraordinary documentary by Diva Communications on creating places in faith communities for persons with disabilities.  You can now order online a copy of this DVD as a resource for developing ministries with persons with disabilities in your congregation:  www.divacommunications.com/aplace.

Bishop Johnson says: Our culture tends to not value people with disabilities as whole persons. But the goal, for any religious group, is to help people see with new eyes that people with disabilities are truly valuable and have skills and abilities that enhance the faith community.
