Education in the Church

Educating ourselves about disabilities of all types, including mental illness, enables churches  to become more aware of the people around us with all of their many gifts and needs.  Thus we are better able to include these persons as a normal part of church and community life, rather than seeing only their disability.  See also related material on Awareness
