First Congregational Church Of Western Springs

Come and celebrate Accessibility Sunday! On this special day, we remember that sometimes people can feel left out because of stairs, or hard to read words, or not being able to hear, or because people don’t understand their needs. Sometimes we can’t see what someone needs but our calling as a church is to be like Jesus, making sure everyone is included, and that church is a place where no one feels left out. We’ll be hearing from three of our members about what accessibility means to them. We will also be celebrating our recent designation by the United Church of Christ as a congregation that is Accessible to All (A2A). A2A is the terminology used within the UCC to refer to congregations that have completed the Accessible to All process and thereby made the commitment to be physically and attitudinally welcoming of people with disabilities. The A2A process has for many years been defined by the A2A resource “Any Body, Everybody, Christ’s Body” Link to Livestream: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUk6jFv9Gno⁠⁠
