We started Key Ministry because we wanted all families to be able to be part of a local church, and we know attending church can be VERY challenging for families of kids with mental illness, families of kids who have experienced significant trauma and kids who struggle with social situations.

Millions of families here in the U.S. and throughout the world would like to be able to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection this weekend together with friends and neighbors. And while the disability ministry movement has made great strides in helping local churches to welcome and include kids with disabilities and their families at church, far too many will be unable to attend this Easter…

• Kids and adults who experience panic attacks in crowds

• Kids and adults with significant sensory processing issues

• Kids and adults with social anxiety or difficulties with social communication

• Families of kids who struggle with self-control

• Families of kids who become distressed in unfamiliar situations

Thanks to the generosity of our friends at Community Bible Church in San Antonio, we’ll have a number of LIVE and prerecorded, interactive worship experience that any family can join online this Easter weekend. We’ll have great music and an inspiring message from Chris Emmitt, one of the teaching pastors at CBC. He’ll be preaching on the theme Break Every Chain.

“Chains” are things that control us and confine us: shame, guilt, pain, hurt, unforgiveness, addictions, our past, sin, failure, fear, thoughts, habits – just to name a few. Desperately we want to be freed from them, but we have tried pretty much everything legally we can and for some reason we always seem to come up empty. We figure this is how it’s supposed to be and we choose to cope. But what if it didn’t have to be this way? What if you didn’t have to cope? What if there was a way to break these chains in your life…forever?

Join us today and Sunday for these special LIVE Easter service as Chris Emmitt challenges us to embrace the true way to permanently break these chains in our lives. Come here the Gospel message like never before!
