Who We Are


Friendship Ministries is a not-for-profit organization that exists to help churches and organizations around the world share God’s love with people who have cognitive impairments.


We can provide you with:


  • a model for ministry

  • help getting started

  • materials you can use to learn about God together

  • the only Bible study available in Spanish for people with cognitive impairments.

What We Believe


  • Society and the church often ignore the spiritual needs of people who have cognitive impairments. At Friendship Ministries, however, we believe that:

  • Everyone is created in God’s image and is deserving of love and justice—both in our society and in our churches. People who have cognitive impairments deserve a chance to know about God and feel God’s love. They also deserve to be treated with respect, and to have friendships with others who know and love God.

  • Redemption is a gift to all. It's a gift from God that is not dependent on a certain level of intelligence.

  • Our church is complete only when it includes all of God’s children and when all people are seen as equals—in God’s eyes and in our own eyes.
