Accessibility Awareness Sunday

Sunday, Nov. 10

In the NIC, each year we set aside the second Sunday of November as Accessibility Awareness Sunday. The primary purpose is to remind each other than everyone is welcome in God’s house, including those with mental, emotional and or physical challenges. The Committee on Accessibility Ministries & the UM Disability Awareness Committee provides resources to assist you with planning the service.

We invite you to visit umcdmc.org/worship and explore ways of increasing awareness in your congregation as you plan worship for this Sunday.
