We welcome and affirm people of all abilities. We have taken the following steps to assure that no one is excluded for full participation in the life of our church.

Mobility

Our Meeting House and Parish House are accessible to those using wheelchairs or having limited mobility. The accessible entrance to the Meeting House is up the ramp to the left of the main entrance, leading to the door under the clock tower.

Sight

Large print hymnals and Orders of Service are always available. Please ask any usher for assistance. If you would like an orientation tour of our facilities during the week, please contact the church office to make arrangements.

Hearing

We have wireless auditory assistance devices available during services. During all church meeting and workshops, anyone wishing to speak from the audience is strongly encouraged to use the available portable microphones so those who are hard of hearing are not excluded.

Chemical Sensitivity

We use odorless candles to accommodate those with chemical sensitivities.

Special Needs Children

If you want your child to participate in the religious education program and feel that they may require special accommodation due to learning disabilities or behavioral issues, please contact the Director of Religious Education in advance so the best possible arrangements can be made.

Pastoral Care

We provide pastoral care to all members regardless of ability. To build the beloved community, the volunteers on the care team receive special training to assist those who may feel unwelcome, patronized or marginalized because of their disability. They may not be able to fully remedy every situation, but they can provide a compassionate ear and a willingness to enlist the help of others. If you have a hidden disability that you think it’s important for someone to know, please contact the minister to share your information in confidence.

Service Animals

We have grassy areas where service animals may relieve themselves. If you have any questions not answered or concerns not addressed, please contact the church office to seek further information.
