Understanding Others
We talk a lot about how to make church welcoming, but we sometimes forget that for the one person in every hundred who has a form of autism, church can be a bewildering or frightening place. That’s why I’m so pleased that these guidelines have been produced for use and information. They explain clearly what it can be like to have an Autistic Spectrum Disorder and how we can help to welcome those with an ASD into church. Small changes can make a big difference. God loves and cares for every one of us. I want churches to show that love and to value our differences. Together, in all our variety, we make up the body of Christ.
Please take some time to read more about this to gain an insight into the difficulties they are burdeoned with and how just a little understanding can make a world of difference to everyone concerned. Thank you.
