DESCRIPTION:God made some of us autistic\, and that's how He likes us.\n\n
 This Autism Acceptance Month St Mary of Charity Faversham is holding a sho
 rt service of words and music for autistic Christians led by autistic Chri
 stians.\n\nThe service will be at 2.30pm on Sunday\, 6 April at St Mary of
  Charity Faversham.  It will include two readings from the Bible\, two hym
 ns\, a short talk\, prayers and a piece of music.  \n\nEverything in the s
 ervice will be written down for those who like to think visually or have t
 hings in advance.  There will be clear symbols to show what is happening f
 or those who prefer images.  There will be pictures in advance of the chur
 ch\, the route to get to it\, and the facilities we have available.  Every
 one will be free to take part in the service and come and go as they pleas
 e. \n \nThis is explicitly not just a service for children.  Autistic adul
 ts are an important part of God's church\, some of them in leadership role
 s as priests\, lay leaders or musicians.  This service is for them\, as we
 ll as all autistic Christians of all ages.\n\nAutism is not a curse\, or s
 omething to be feared or "cured".  God made about 1 in every 50 people aut
 istic.  This service aims to give time and space for autistics to worship 
 God in the ways that work for us.
