Disability Ministries Network
"There is a massive need for us as a mission agency to ensure we have the passion, compassion and understanding how to fully include everyone and ensure all the parts of the body of Christ have their place and that no one is left out." 3rd Dec, International Day of Persons with Disabilities
"My name is Rosaliene and I am the Disability Network Coordinator for ECM. Why would we have a Disability Network Coordinator? The World Health Organisation has recently updated figures on those living with disabilities in the world, which now stands at 16%. This means that 1 in 7 people in the world have a disability.
In many countries people with disabilities are excluded from hearing the Gospel either because their ill health prevents them from engaging socially with people or because of discrimination. This means that many of them never hear the Gospel.
There is a massive need for us as a mission agency to ensure we have the passion, compassion and understanding how to fully include everyone and ensure all the parts of the body of Christ have their place and that no one is left out.
We also have missionary families affected by physical or mental ill health. With my role, I seek to improve awareness of a range of health conditions including ADHD, autism, sensory impairments, mental health, etc. I can offer information about resources or organisations that can offer further help.
Within my role in the ECM Member Care Leadership Team I can provide additional support for individuals who may be struggling with health-related issues and work towards greater sense of strengthening of their faith and well-being."
