Webinar: 'Kinship in the Household of God'
What: Cynthia Tam will explore the concept of belonging to a church community from the perspective of autistic people who are not using speech or language as their primary means of communication. Cynthia will describe a participatory action research project in which she explored how two young persons entered their church community with the support of a circle of friends. Reflecting on their experiences, she will discuss how we should see differences in the Body of Christ as gifts of God. The household concept invites the audience to reconceptualize Christian relationships as covenantal kinship.
Who: Cynthia Tam is an ordained minister and the national coordinator for disability ministries with the Alliance Canada. She is a pastor of The Living Room Church in Toronto. Cynthia is research fellow at McMaster Divinity College, and an instructor at Ambrose University.
