In Association With:
66% of churches say they need ideas for how to include disabled people in church activities*
In response to this need, the theme of the 2010 Disability Sunday is Finding Hidden Treasure to help congregations engage more fully with disabled people.
We believe that disabled people have an enormous amount to offer the life and ministry of the Church. However too often barriers are put in their way that hide the contribution they can bring: too often the gifts and faith of disabled people are Hidden Treasure waiting to be discovered.
