Subject: Many Families Impacted by Disability Need Access to Hope

"On my worst days, my heart feels so broken I can barely breathe. On my best days, my heart feels so broken I can barely breathe.


The only difference between the two, my best and my worst day, is how I respond to the loneliness that inherently comes with the circumstances I am facing."

This was shared from one parent... just one family member reaching out... in need! So many families impacted by disability need access to HOPE. Our churches are here to lead them to the HOPE that can be found in Jesus.


Special Touch Ministry is here to help expand the vision and reach of your church, to actively fulfill its role in the Great Commission, adding souls, often overlooked, to the Kingdom of God, making it possible to fulfill the scriptures and “Compel them to come in!”

Disability Friendly Church Partnership & Ongoing Support

Starting a ministry to people with disabilities in your church is a process which takes time to plan, develop, and grow. The DFC Partnership program provides a steady relationship of support, connection, and consulting between your church and our organization.


With a Faith Promise of $25/month or more, our staff will work with your church leaders, providing guidance, direction, and access to unique Disability Ministry supports, valuable tools, consultation, and other tangible benefits including books and curriculum (costs may apply).
