Created in God’s image, Beautiful in His sight
Every individual is created in the image of God and plays a unique and important role in the body of Christ. Alliance Special Needs Ministry exists to bless and encourage individuals with special needs and their families and to help them engage in the life of the church. We understand the special challenges, and beautiful blessings, that come with loving someone who has disabilities. It is an honor and joy to walk alongside other families and encourage each other in our journeys. Email Ronny and Anne Margaret Wright with questions at rawright@skybest.com.
Joy Prom 2024
Saturday, April 20 | 1:00-4:30pm
Joy Prom is a very special dance for guests (teens and older) who have special medical or intellectual/developmental needs. The afternoon begins with a red-carpet entrance, where each guest is announced by name to the cheering crowd. At the Pamper Stations, the gentlemen can have their shoes shined, and the ladies can have their hair, make-up, and nails done. Guests can have a professional picture taken at the photo booth. Then it’s on to the dance and snacks!
