Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me..."
Matthew 19:14
At FCC, we want to be intentional about making room for all those who the Master calls to His Table. Unfortunately, families affected by disabilities often encounter major barriers to entering into a church body.
Special Friends Ministry is purposed to identify and break down barriers to inclusion for people with disabilities and reach out to those in our community who might feel unwanted or unable to fellowship and serve with us. Special Friends will hold Friday Night Respites, which can provide much needed rest for families of those with disabilities and we have a specially designed classroom for Sunday Morning services. If you are a family in need of support, please consider taking advantage of our upcoming Respites. We are here to support you while you care and support your family!

Special Friends Respites
Our respites are designed for families of those with disabilities in mind. We know how much love and work it takes to maintain a special family like yours and we would like to provide a few hours of respite for you.
Special Friends and siblings are welcome to a Friday night respite where we have trained and experienced volunteers to hang out with your kids, have sensory play, games, a movie and dinner. All while you get some much needed rest.
