CHURCH RELATIONS
Disability Ministry - One of the fastest growing movements in America! Is your church ready?
The church all across America is responding to God's call to
"…go out quickly into the streets and the alleys of towns, and bring the poor, the crippled, the blind and the lame…. make them come in so that my house may be full…"Luke 14:21, 23
More and more churches are seeking to be equipped to include individuals with disabilities and their families, and Joni and Friends is here to serve!
Joni and Friends Church Relations team is here to serve, equip, provide opportunities, and work along side the church every step of the way as they reach out, serve, and include people affected by disability. Through our Church Training program Through the Roof and ministry programs like Wheels for the World, Family Retreats, and Special Delivery, your church will catch the vision, have life changing opportunities to serve, and be equipped for disability ministry.

How your church can get involved
Churches of all sizes can get involved and support Joni and Friends in a variety of ways. Many churches provide volunteers or teams to serve on local outreaches or on our Wheels for the World short-term missions trips. Several partner with us by expanding their existing programs to reach the disability community. Others will host disability awareness church services and training at their church. Many churches financially support our Wheels for the World International Missions or Family Retreats as part of their missions program. What is God calling your church to do?
Church partnership opportunities “Harvest Project” and “Church Chapter” are also available to help you expand your church missions and disability programs.
