Our church is located south of Jackson, Michigan about a half mile west of Highway 127 on Jefferson Rd., approximately 11 miles south of I-94. Click here for directions on Google Maps.
Many people use our handicapped accessible entrance on the south side (back) of the building which leads into the social hall. There are stairs and a lift in the social hall that lead to the sanctuary. People can also enter the church through the front door.
We welcome and affirm people of all abilities. We have taken these steps to assure that no one is excluded from full participation in the life of our church. Our buildings are protected by a security system.
Our sanctuary, social hall, and main restroom are accessible to those using wheelchairs or having limited mobility. The social hall is reached via a ramp from the church back door to the social hall. There is an enclosed lift from the social hall to the sanctuary that can hold two people or a wheelchair. Volunteers are trained on its operation. Our religious education classrooms are handicap accessible except for the nursery. Railings have been installed at the back entrance steps, pulpit steps, schoolhouse steps and ramp.
We have assisted listening devices available in our sanctuary for worship services, congregational meetings, and other programs. During all church services, anyone wishing to speak from the audience is strongly encouraged to use the portable microphones so those who are hard of hearing are not excluded. We have installed ceiling tiles in our social hall that have improved the acoustics in that space a great deal.
If you have a hidden disability that you think is important for someone to know about, please contact the church or the minister to share your information in confidence. We have several members of our community who have special training in full inclusion and are activists in the disability rights community. 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. Please ask the minister if you would like to talk with one of these individuals about how our church can better meet your needs.
If you have any questions not answered or concerns not addressed, please contact the church to seek further information.
