” …more than just a fundraiser; it is a celebration of the beautiful, resilient faith community of people with disabilities who reflect the very heart of God’s kingdom…” Rev. Dr. Joanne VanSant
JOIN THE CELEBRATION – Friends-to-Friends Community Church continues its vision for a fully accessible, inclusive organization and facility where EVERYONE can find a place to belong!
Friends to Friends Community Church is a congregation of the Reformed Church of America. This worshiping body is made up of adults on the entire spectrum of ability including intellectual; developmental; neuro diverse as well as physical.
Your donation will directly support:
Accessible worship and events for the broader community of people on the full spectrum of ability.
A fully accessible space for community partners in education, the arts; social events to build extended community
and friendships
Spiritual formation and pastoral care tailored to people with disabilities
Resources and tools that empower individuals to grow in faith; in community leadership; in skills and social
experience.
Just as the merchant in Jesus’ parable (Matthew 13:45–46), where a man finds a rare pearl so valuable, he sells everything he owns to buy it. It means something so precious—like love, truth, or purpose—that you’d give up anything to have it.”
The lives, gifts, and stories of people with disabilities are treasures worthy of our full investment. Our community thrives because of the courage, faith, and joy that each member brings — and your support makes it possible for us to continue nurturing this sacred space.
Whether you give $25, $100, or more, every contribution brings us closer to a world where everyone — regardless of
ability — is welcomed, celebrated, and equipped to flourish.
