How do we create churches where neurodivergent people and their families don’t just feel welcomed, but genuinely feel that they belong?

Join me in Whakatāne for a practical and encouraging three-hour workshop exploring neurodiversity, inclusion and what churches can do to better support people with different brains, needs and ways of experiencing the world.

We’ll look beyond simply changing behaviour and explore how we can create environments where people feel understood, supported, valued and able to participate.

This workshop is ideal for pastors, ministry leaders, children’s and youth workers, volunteers, parents, families and anyone passionate about creating more inclusive church communities.

📍 Whakatāne Baptist Church
67 Keepa Road, Whakatāne
📅 Saturday 17 October 2026
