Intentionally Inclusive Worship, Mark Stephenson, Bill Vanden Bosch, Lyn Vanden Bosch Jan 2011

Intentionally Inclusive Worship, Mark Stephenson, Bill Vanden Bosch, Lyn Vanden Bosch

Symposium on Worship Archive

When Rev. Bill and Lyn Vanden Bosch came to Oakdale Park Church in Grand Rapids they decided that they would stay long enough for the church to become an inclusive community. They stayed 30 years. They will help participants understand what an intentionally inclusive church looks like. It’s not about creating programs, but creating a mindset which says to each individual, “You belong.” That same mindset avoids paternalism by also telling each person, “You have something to contribute.” Workshop leaders will touch on issues relating to inclusiveness and worship, pastoral care, outreach, and fellowship.
