For many years, Disability Access/Inclusion Sunday resources have been a gift to the church from Presbyterians for Disability Concerns (PDC). The theme for the June 28, 2009, Sunday emphasis reflects the faith, experiences and challenges of writers with disabilities as they encounter Scripture. PDC offers these reflections that all will be able to enter, worship, learn and lead in our congregations.
