I am a member of a church who just recently merged with 3 other churches. I am the worship leader for the contemporary service, my husband is a trustee, and our 5 year old son is PDD-NOS. I work nights during the week and it is very hard to find someone to watch him for one night when my husband has a trustee meeting, so I asked the church if there was going to be someone to watch him in the nursery during the meeting. They e-mailed me back saying that it was decided that as of Feb. 7th they would not have child care available for children with special needs. We have been members for around 3 to 4 years now and we have not seen or heard of any other special need children in our churches. I have forward the e-mail onto the pastors with a reply stating that if we are truly trying to bring our community together and bring in more families then we should have a plan in place for families that have special needs, like child care. I'm I wrong in thinking this way? Is there some other way that I can have child care for my son during functions at church? If anyone has any thoughts please feel free to PM me or reply to this post.
Thanks for letting me vent.
