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 and Bay Presbyterian Church in Bay Village, OH we’ll have a number of LIVE and prerecorded, interactive worship experience that any family can join online this Easter weekend.

Join us today and Sunday for these special LIVE Easter service as CBC’s new lead pastor, Ed Newton looks at the topic of What We Believe.
