Beyond Sympathy

Here’s Lucia speaking at a recent workshop: Disability Friendly Church – Beyond Sympathy: Towards Empathy and Altruism.

This conversation included a message about how important it is to move past our tendencies to feel sorry for those with disabilities and move on to building relationships.

VIVA Network Country Coordinator and staff were in attendance as a follow up to the first ‘Value and Purpose’ teaching COA shared. VIVA Network has embraced the vision and decided to invite more pastors and leaders to hear this message and take action in their own churches and communities.
