Special Needs Ministry:  
Dream Team and Dream Makers

The Dream Team assists special needs children, youth and vulnerable adults each Sunday so that the parents/families can attend church service/Sunday school. We also help out during special times in the church, such as Easter, Christmas Eve services and Vacation Bible School. We have one child that would love to be in choir but needs someone to be there with that helping hand. The need is there for these families to be in partnership with God. They need a little helping hand from us, the church family.   

In addition to Dream Team, the Dream Makers is a group of parents organized to provide a support system for the parents and families of special needs children and adults. Do you or someone you know have a child with special needs? Would you like to know more about our support group for families of special needs children? Contact Lorie Payne at Loriepayne@aol.com for more info about upcoming Dream Makers meetings.
