Key Ministry Key Ministry promotes meaningful connection between churches and families of kids with disabilities

We embrace our role as leaders among like-minded individuals, organizations and congregations in the movement to welcome and include persons with disabilities and their families in the life of the local church. Key Ministry serves a unique role in connecting churches with families of children with “hidden disabilities”… mental illness, trauma and developmental disabilities. Operating Principles...

We provide as many products and services as possible free of charge. Ministry is done best by a team…no person or organization gets all the gifts! We “expand the circle” of the disability ministry movement by including persons inside and outside the church. We seek opportunities to collaborate with like-minded ministries. We create platforms to advance the cause of disability ministry and share them with other leaders. We actively seek to maximize the impact of our ministry through application of technology.

It’s the “Disability Ministry Domino Effect of Defeat.”

➡️ Volunteers lose…
➡️ Parents lose…
➡️ Church leaders lose…

👉 and in the midst of all those moments of defeat the friend impacted by hidden disability trying to attend church while navigating so MANY barriers loses too.

Now everybody leaves defeated and many times frustrated.

All because across the board nobody was set up for success.

BUT there is a solution!
➡️ Train volunteers, create a culture that welcomes ALL abilities, equip ministry leaders that understand hidden disabilities and know how to partner with parents for the overall goal of… gospel discipleship.

Key Ministry can help…

🗓️ Mark your calendars for Disability & the Church conference, March 9-11, 2027 in Houston, TX.
