Guests and members with special needs receive special attention at Prestonwood.

We regard special needs as different abilities rather than disabilities. In Saunders Children's Building, we have a suite of specially designed rooms devoted to adults and children with special needs. Our staff is compassionate and well-versed in sharing God's truth in loving, appropriate ways. And just as Jesus loved all who came to Him, we cherish our special needs families. We have established a support group for fellowship and the exchange of information, ideas, resources and positive strategies.

Bible Fellowship and Activities

Bible Fellowship and fun activities are provided during the Saturday Night Worship Service and both Sunday Worship Services. We would love for you to join us!
