SPECIAL NEEDS
& DISABILITY

“As parents of a special needs son, my wife Liz and I understand the challenges you encounter. One of the things we learned in our thirty-eight-year journey is the utter importance of great friends and a really good, caring church.  If you are special needs or the parent of a special needs child, I know you can find both of these wonderful benefits here at Burke Community Church.”

Marty Baker, Senior Pastor

Welcome to the
Special Needs Ministry
