OCEAN CITY – All are invited to a monthly worship and fellowship time at St. John Lutheran Church, 10th & Central Avenue in Ocean City. Rejoicing Spirits is an inclusive, meaningful Christian worship service that welcomes, embraces, and celebrates the gifts of our brothers and sisters with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The church will commemorate it’s 5th anniversary of Rejoicing Spirits at St. John at the next service, which will be held Nov. 5 at 1 p.m.
The church is especially thankful this year since Rejoicing Spirits at St. John Lutheran Church was recently named as the recipient of the 2017 Frank Unkle Outstanding Service Award, which acknowledges individuals, organizations and businesses for their contributions to improving the quality of life for individuals with disabilities in Cape May County. The church’s ministry will be honored with this award at the upcoming Disabilities Awareness Day, to be held Nov. 4, at the Avalon Community Center.
Rejoicing Spirits enriches the spiritual lives of people with intellectual disabilities through a meaningful Christian worship service and fellowship time in free, expressive environment. Individuals are free to be themselves while actively participating as contributing members of an inclusive faith community. People with disabilities, their families, friends and other supportive community members come together to worship in a “shush-free” environment.
