WELCOME TO RAMP UP!
|
Ramp Up celebrates the role of people with disabilities in the church.
Ramp Up:
- Dispels myths about disability
- Provides a Biblical view of disability
- Promotes the inclusion of people with disabilities in work, witness and leadership
- Provides tools to improve the accessibility of churches
- and much more
Five percent of the four million South Africans living with disabilities have been reached by the church. Churches need to "Ramp Up" their systems and facilities to reach the remaining 95%.
God's astonishing generosity is vividly portrayed in the parable of the Great Banquet in Luke 14. "Yet there is room!" exclaims the amazed servant after bringing numerous people to the banquet. These people assumed they were unwelcome at the feast due to their rejection, because of their disabilities, by the rest of the village. Imagine their joy at finding themselves seated at the banqueting table. And because there is room, the invitation to the feast is still open.
Ramp Up helps the Church and people with disabilities to grow in relationship, so that everyone can 'be at home in church', a place of preparation for the Great Banquet.
We hope that you will enjoy exploring Ramp Up as much as we have enjoyed designing it.
Let us know what you think and give us your suggestions to improve Ramp Up.
