A Man Born Blind and Jesus (March 15, 2026)
from Yes! We're Open: Living Faith with Needham UCC · host The Congregational Church of Needham
Jesus heals a lot of people, but the story usually called “Jesus and the Man Born Blind” is one of the longest and most detailed meditations on illness, disability, and healing. And it’s one of the few times where the experience of the disabled person–in this case, the “man born blind”--is centered in the text. So it’s fitting that our guest preacher, a person who lives with disability themselves and has a ministry centering the needs and gifts, the whole personhood of disabled people, will share their experience with us. (John 9:1-41)Join us for worship Sundays @ 10am Eastern Time, on-site & online via Zoom. Connect at www.NeedhamUCC.org—-The Congregational Church of Needham strives to be a justice-seeking, peace-making, LGBTQ+ affirming, radically inclusive congregation of the United Church of Christ in Needham, MA. www.NeedhamUCC.orgChurch is the practice.Love is the point.
