2007 Inclusion Awareness Day Workbook
Celebrating Access and Inclusion in Worship
Pathways Awareness Foundation invites congregations of all denominations to celebrate Inclusion Awareness Day the weekend of September 30, 2007, or to choose a date convenient for their worshipping community. Through special worship services, sermons and prayers, congregations use the day to reflect on how well they intentionally include people of all abilities in worship, ministry, fellowship and education every day of the year. The goal is to create caring, inclusive congregations where people of all abilities can participate.
The annual Inclusion Awareness Day Workbook provides material to assist congregations in observing Inclusion Awareness Day. Print a complete 2007 workbook(PDF) or click on the pages below that interest you
