| The Ao Baptist Church Diphupar, one of the very few churches in Nagaland with ramp access into the building |
The Baptist Church of Nagaland has designated the third
Sunday of November every year as PwD (Persons with Disability) Sunday, a day
for churches and fellowships to focus on celebrating the abilities and involvement
of disabled people. This year it falls on the coming Sunday – November 20.
The Nagaland Baptist Church Council has taken a very important
step towards building an inclusive church by setting up a Disability Commission
to guide its churches. I believe this is a watershed moment in the Nagaland Christian
disability movement.
