Diverse Abilities Retreat
Olmsted and the WPAUMC Disability Ministries Committee have partnered to bring you this combined conference with two pathways to choose from:

Path 1: This retreat pathway will provide an opportunity for those living with a disability, as well as those who support them, to engage in meaningful communication, build relationships, and grow spiritually together.

Path 2: This is an educational pathway for pastors and church leaders to create worship & ministry environments conducive to those living with a disability. There will be multiple breakout sessions based on a practical application of the annual Accessibility Report and a Panel discussion consisting of those living with a disability and those who support them.

Retreat Leader

Picture
Rev. Mimi Luebbers is honored to chair the Disability Ministries Committee of the UMC. As the parent of an adult child with an intellectual/developmental disability, she feels called to help the church become more accessible to more people, especially those with disabilities, including mental health conditions, and those who accompany them. To live into this call, she draws on her faith, as well as her background in occupational therapy and MAPT with a specialization in Disability & Ministry, which she earned from Methodist Theological School in Ohio. She finds joy in talking with people about ways that our churches can become places of true belonging for all who would seek to follow Jesus. But playing with her grandkids, Noah, Naomi, Mae, and Aria is the most fun ever!
