Jesus said whoever is the least is the greatest—whoever welcomes a<br />

child in my name welcomes me (Luke 9:46-48).<br />

What would happen if you decided to treat every person like he or<br />

she is made in the image of God?<br />

When we embrace children and adults with special needs, we<br />

welcome Jesus. We welcome the One who sent Him, not just for a<br />

few, but for everyone.<br />

NorthStar Church’s<br />

Imagine Special Needs<br />

Ministry is a home<br />

celebrating God’s image<br />

in every person. After<br />

launching one year ago,<br />

we have seen tremendous<br />

growth, which is an<br />

indication of how needed<br />

this type of program<br />

is in our community.<br />

With the addition of a<br />

sensory room, separate<br />

youth classroom,<br />

implementation of a<br />

buddy system, and<br />

our recently launched<br />

parent respite nights, this<br />

ministry focuses on embracing families, facilitating inclusion, and<br />

creating a home where families with special needs can find reprieve.<br />

NorthStar Church’s Imagine Special Needs Ministry is so proud to<br />

be hosting, in partnership with Chick-Fil-A, Night To Shine, a Tim<br />

Tebow Foundation event. Night to Shine is an unforgettable prom<br />

night experience, centered on God’s love, for people with special<br />
