The Accessibility Ministry exists to make the gospel and our ministries available to all, and to remind our church that everyone has a seat at God’s table: everyone belongs.
“…you will always have a seat at my table…” (2 Samuel 9:7b)
In 2 Samuel 9, we read the story of Mephibosheth. When Mephibosheth was five years old, his father Jonathan was killed in battle. Fearing that the Philistines would seek to take the life of the young boy, a nurse fled with him to the royal residence, but in her haste she dropped him and both of his feet were crippled (2 Samuel 4:4). But King David took special care of Mephibosheth. He vowed his service to the young boy, and promised that as long as he lived, Mephibosheth would have a seat at the King’s table (2 Samuel 9:7,13).
If you or your family member would benefit from special accessibility or accommodations at Eastbrook, whether that is due to a disability, neurodivergence, or anything else, please fill out the form below and our team will be in touch.
FAST provides prayer, encouragement, fellowship, education, and resources to families that God has given the privilege of joining in His work by fostering and adopting His children. We meet biweekly with activities ranging from a book study to guest speakers to special family events. 2nd & 4th Sundays at 9:30 am in Room B225
Special Needs Parent Bible Study
This parent Bible Study is a once-a-month meeting for parents who have children of any age with special needs of any kind. We gather to learn from God’s Word and to encourage one another. No preparation is required to attend—just come as often as you are able!
Please note: This group will take a break in August but plans to restart in September 2026.
3rd Sundays of the month at 9:30 am in Room B225
For Kids with Special Needs (Birth-Gr. 12):
We exist to make the Gospel and our NextGen ministries accessible to all children and students. Through inclusive programming, carefully-crafted accommodation plans, and one-on-one buddy pairs, the team works to support our differently-abled friends, and encourage all families that no matter their child’s needs—Eastbrook can be a place for them to know the love of Jesus and find community.
