We warmly invite you to the K-Church Disability Conference 2025, a significant two-day gathering dedicated to reimagining the Church through the lens of inclusion, compassion, and biblical truth. Centered on the powerful theme—“A Church Without Disabled People is a Disabled Church”—this conference challenges us to confront long-held assumptions and to embody the full image of Christ by embracing every member of the body, including those with developmental disabilities.

​

We are deeply honored to welcome Dr. Chris H. Hulshof, author of Jesus and Disability and a nationally respected voice in disability theology. Alongside him is Rev. H. Daniel Kim, Executive Director of the Joy Center for the Disabled and the Korean translator of Jesus and Disability. Together, they will present a rich theological and pastoral foundation for disability ministry, equipping attendees with a vision of the Church that is whole, welcoming, and Christ-centered.

​

This year’s keynote speakers also include Rev. Barnabas Kim and Dr. Lydia Kim of the Korean Church of Queens. As parents of a child with Down syndrome and a heart condition, their lived experience has shaped a powerful ministry rooted in grace, hope, and inclusion. Their story calls the Church to become a place where every person belongs, contributes, and flourishes.
