Special Needs Ministries in churches are still very rare but so, so needed! FBC has been blessed to have a group of highly invested Mothers and families working to meet this underserved need. For close to 20 years, FBC has provided a class for special needs individuals to have specialized focus and care. This ministry has given a safe space for these precious individuals and allowed their families to worship with peace of mind and heart.
This ministry, called Side by Side, took a major new step this last spring by hosting FBC's first Starlight Ball. It was a prom for special needs guests! The event was unbelievable, as close to 70 guests attended. Each guest was paired with a buddy throughout the night. The boys had their shoes shined, and the girls had a special room for hair and makeup. There was a limo ride, and even the San Antonio Spurs Coyote Mascot made an appearance. Watch the video recap here:

Below is an email that was sent by a parent:
Kudos to you guys; you made their night. My girls felt beautiful; my boys were so proud. I could feel God's smile as I sat there and watched them put their crowns on. You all accepted this creation with love. What we do unto the least of these- we have done unto Him. Please tell your team how much they meant to the kids, the parents, and their teachers. My personal child and my students were there - and I spoke with more than one parent in tears. You gave them crowns and ministered to their emotions and their souls. I left without words to express what a fabulous job you all did. Giving them crowns so that one day, they can lay at the feet of Jesus - so beautiful!
