SUMMARY:SBC 2026 – Stand Up: Standing for Vulnerable Adults Against Abuse and Exploitation
DESCRIPTION:In the United States\, more than 1 in 4 adults have a disability of some kind.\nAccording to the U.S. Department of Justice\, people with disabilities are over 3 times more likely to be abused than people without disabilities.\nAs Christians\, we view all human beings as precious\, wonderfully made\, and created in the image of God. Tragically\, abusers often target the vulnerable including children and people with disabilities. Some disabilities may be obvious\, such as those that necessitate a wheelchair or seeing eye dog. Others may be less obvious\, such as difficulty hearing\, learning\, or processing information. Some people are born with special needs\, while others develop them later in life due to injury\, illness\, or age.\n\nWhile Jesus ministered here on earth\, he worked wondrous miracles – many of which were centered around people with special needs. Jesus cares deeply about persons with disabilities. As Christians\, we long to be like Jesus and to align our are hearts and priorities with Gods. One way to do this is to care for people with unique needs and challenges\, proactively protecting\, ministering to\, and loving them well.\n\nJoin us for lunch in Orlando during the SBC annual meeting to learn more about how you can follow Christ’s example to Stand Up for persons with unique and special abilities.
