Linking Employment, Abilities and Potential (LEAP)
LEAP: Issues & Advocacy: All May Worship
 

That ALL May Worship,
a wonderful event held this past Saturday, celebrated the common call of all faith traditions to offer access, kindness and opportunity to all persons, regardless of disability.

The readings, poetry and videos at the multi-faith worship service were moving; The Verlezza Dance Company and the St. Augustine Deaf Choir performed beautifully.  Rev. Dr. Val Lassiter's discussion on  Building Inclusive Communities was motivational and the responders shared their stories and their lives with power and grace.
 
Thanks to all who attended and shared this experience.
