Joni and Friends is one of the oldest ministries in America whose focus is entirely on supporting people with disabilities and those who love them. Joni Ericson Tada was paralyzed at age 17 in a diving accident. After wrestling with God for several years she finally accepted His call to work with churches, families and individuals who care about reaching out to the disabled.
Today they have an international center that touches millions through radio, written materials and the distribution of wheelchairs. They also sponsor seminars and events training Christians how to love all God's people. That is where I am this week and I will speak twice tomorrow about the research we did with these families and how we propose to train Lay Helpers to support the families and the person with a disability.
You can tune in to hear my talks live at 1:30 and 2:30 tomorrow or later because it will be taped
for watching anywhere and anytime. Go to our web to connect.
By the way, consider taking a look at Box Cast the company making this possible to us free. Thanks to Gordon Daily.
Christian truth, fruit and power. A mixture of research, Bible, stories,testimonies and fun.
