The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod works with many Recognized Service Organizations (RSOs) that provide faith-based ministry to those with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Bethesda Lutheran Communities is one of these RSOs and offers several resources for use in congregations of any size. A recent collection of these resources is called The Christ Connection. This collection focuses on the fact that God created us exactly as He planned. We offer them here for you, your congregation and the people you serve. Additional free or low cost resources can be found at bethesdalutherancommunities.org.

We also offer these two directories of RSOs that offer resources and services for those with disabilities. For your convenience, we offer them sorted by service and sorted by state.
