Over the past several years, the Bethsaida Team has held workshops at its evening meetings. This Saturday conference will reprise these workshops and add new ones that will help your congregation become more welcoming to people with disabilities - information on: signing for the deaf; depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia; autism; including children and youth with disabilities in church programs. In addition to workshops, there will be exhibitors with additional ideas and information on equipment to make your facilities more accessible.This conference will provide you with information that will help you to make the most of Funding for Accessibility which is coming in 2008. This 2008 event will expand upon our earlier conference, "We won't come if we can't go."Each Best of Bethsaida workshop will be repeated three times so that two people will be able to cover all the topics and the exhibits.The Best of Bethsaida Conference includes a Continental Breakfast and Box Lunch. The cost for the conference is $15 with pre-registration and $20 at the door. Scholarships are available.More details on the schedule of workshops and registration for the event will be available soon.
