Special Needs (Access)

In Light of the Virus

Thanks for visiting Woodmen on the web. Out of care for our neighbors and in compliance with government directives, we’re not meeting face-to-face for a while. While much of this page doesn’t apply today, we’ve left this info here for you to catch a vision for how we’ll gather and connect and serve when we come together again. To get the latest info on how you can join in the ways we’re following Jesus and doing church during the virus outbreak, click HERE.

Everyone is included

Woodmen Access is all about including everyone! We want those affected by special needs to feel welcome and included in the service and and programs in the church. How can we support you?

SHADOW PROGRAMS

A "shadow" is someone who comes alongside a child/peer/adult to lovingly help them engage in the various programs. Our desire is for the participant to experience God and participate in the body of Christ to their God-given potential, while the parent or caregiver attends our main worship service. Depending upon your desires, and your loved one’s abilities and needs, they can be fully, or partially included in the general programs and activities at Woodmen.

Please contact us prior to your first visit so we can give you more information and provide for your needs.

 JOIN IN CHURCH LIFE
Access integrates those with disabilities into the life of the church and gives them opportunity to have active roles in serving God. (1 Corinthians 12: 21-26)

MODEL MEETING NEEDS
Access enables the church to serve as a witness or model to the community in meeting the spiritual, physical and social needs of families affected by disabilities. Acts 1:8).
