Always my top event of the year. I love the sound of this year’s retreat format! #DisabilityTheology #DisabledLed #CripTheChurch #BlessedWeary
A space to explore and embody rest, and to reflect on ideas of value. With meditations, stories, creativity, theology and liturgy.
A self-paced programme of pre-recorded content. Sign up https://t.co/6GuBIOJQhK
Thank you for the kind words, Katie - I'm so glad our work is a useful resource for you and your mum. As a disabled child of a disabled person myself, I can relate. (My dad read the book & I think it was useful to him, even years after he left churches.) #CripTheChurch @emjric
Currently feeling very grateful for the work of @naomi_jacobs - their work on disability in religious contexts has been invaluable in asserting to my mum that she deserves to enter church as a disabled person as an equal, not as a charitable project.
I truly believe a huge ecumenical conversation needs to be had about this. I am disabled. I follow a ton of #DisabledClergy and I have a ton of laity some of them now former who is disabled and I have seen many churches boast of inclusion but...are not living it. #CripTheChurch
Remember, churches lobbied to be exempt from the ADA and succeeded. So yeah, I remain uncertain that churches who claim "all are welcome" can live up to that very brash statement.
This is a long thread however I think a lot of abled people both Christians and Clergy need to read it. This is our lived experience even before Covid and now to see someone's mother treated like this breaks my heart #CripTheChurch #FaithfullyDisabled #DisabledClergy
This one is gonna be a thread. I'm sad and angry.
I just got off the phone with my mom. She recounted to me a heartbreaking instance of cruelty from the pastor of the church which she had come to believe was safe for her. 1/25 🧵
the number of people who were inspired by the person's original tweet. Which is another problem. #DisabledClergy #CripTheChurch #AutisticElders #DisabledLaity
As soon as it opened I knew it would be bad. We are not special needs we are disabled. #CripClergy #DisabledClergy #CripTheChurch #AutisticElders #DisabledLaity
#DisabilityTheology is not niche. Disability theology is not specialist. Disability theology is for everyone (yes, you too). Great thread for #DisabilityPrideMonth - thanks Lamar #CripTheChurch
Not much response on this and we need those responses #DisabledClergy #SlateSpeak #AutisticClergy #CripTheChurch
Welcome to our day-long, asynchronous town hall! We’re considering a new time for our #SlateSpeak conversations, beyond/in addition to Thursdays at 9pm ET. What are y’all's thoughts?
We’ll tally this thread tonight. Respond at your holy leisure. Off we go!
#SlateSpeakTime
Hey, abled clergy a gentle reminder. We are disabled NOT differently-abled #DisabledClergy #CripTheChurch #AutisticClergy #ADATheChurch
I will not shut up about it. I will not accept the exclusion any longer. If @churchclarity can do it for LGBTQIA people then maybe something for disability access can be done. Also, resource access to be included is a huge issue. #CripTheChurch #DisabledFaith #AutisticElders
This infuriates me as a disabled Pastor #CripTheChurch
Churches are like: sorry we can’t provide an interpreter :/ you see, we aren’t required to abide by the ADA and provide access so we’re just not going to :)
At a time when disabled people are fighting for our very existence we do not expect or deserve to have to fight for our right to church as well. @ChurchTimes #angelatilby #cripthechurch. Check this out and share like mad. https://t.co/dDScNvJ8Mt
#cripthechurch AMEN!
@Equal_Church @DisabilityJ I'm going to say this quietly because I'm embarrassed, but having had ME and not been able to go to church on sundays for >3 years, I cried when the newsletter came out saying they would live stream sunday services online for those ill or self-isolating. They always could have.
#CripTheChurch When tweeting around issues of church and disability can we try to use the hashtag #CripTheChurch sometimes, that way we build up a thread that can provide evidence of the depth of need
#CripTheChurch @JustinWelby @churchofengland @synod @churchtimes @CottrellStephen THIS, THIS & THIS! It is way beyond time to make good on this promise. Can as many of you as possible retweet this?
@DisabilityJ July 2007 debate at GS ....
I was there
I made a speech
I was hopeful that change would come
Now
Only half the 42 Dioceses have someone
Of them,
Most unpaid
Most not just Disability
Most part time
Most, no training or intentional support
@churchofengland
@JustinWelby
#CripTheChurch @churchofengland @synod How can we ensure that those who cannot access a physical church are represented at General Synod?
#CripTheChurch With just over half an hour to go, find yourself a comfortable quiet space, make a drink, maybe light a candle and get ready
#CripTheChurch See you all in an hour
