WHAT IS SPECIAL SESSION?
The mission of Special Session is to know Christ in all people, through ministry to and with people of all abilities. Our vision is a vibrant, loving community where all God’s children are celebrated.
What are the core values of Special Session?
Imago Dei: We believe that all people are made in the image and likeness of God, which means that all people are free to make choices: to love, to create, to reason, and to live in harmony with creation and with God.
Boundless Welcome: We believe our community is formed in the adventure of welcoming, respecting, and valuing all God’s children.
Sacramental Celebration: We believe in the power of celebration, of rejoicing in other people’s gifts and graces. We believe that celebration of one another is an outward and visible sign of inward and spiritual grace.
Messy Grace: We believe that an assurance of grace is found in the messy moments of life—in the loving care of bodies, in the persistent pursuit and renewal of relationships, and in the midst of chaos and uncertainty.
