- Most disabled individuals have wrested with the fact that all children of God depend on each other. Many of the rest of us carry an invisible disability with us every day: the destructive illusion that we must be self-sufficient. As we open our hearts to a relationship with others, may their wisdom and experiences help us melt away that isolating illusion.

Visiting at Smokey Point Community Church
What a great weekend! Man, if you've never been to Smokey Point Community Church...you should give it a try. OK OK, I absolutely love my own home church, but it was great to get away to someplace different. It was great to get away. I just loved the praise and worship. It reminded me a little of how it's done at Mt. View with the combination of contemporary songs as well as the traditional. Let me tell you, I could've sang "How Great Thou Art" about 3 more times. By the way, I was speaking there at all 4 services (2 Sat evening and 2 Sunday morning). Their church is co-hosting their 2nd Annual St. Patrick's Day Celebration and unbelievably, we had dinner reservations for 180 people within 8 days! Wow! They really have it together there. BUT the most impressive thing to me was their program for special needs called "In His Image". It consists of a Small Care group (which consists of adults with special needs) that meets on Saturday nights. They also have a S.S. Program, they have a parent support group, they have nights out and even a VBS for those of all ages with special needs. Absolutely amazing...following and honoring 1Corinthians ~ All parts of the body are needed to the "T". Those parts who are weaker are the most precious. I agree. Want more info? E-mail my friend Lindy.
