BROOKLYN Bedford Stuyvesant
And uniquely me creative arts
On Saturday, March 9th these “teams” assembled at
Bethany Baptist Church for a monthly guided session
with differently abled young people.
This program, founded by Deon Jones, was inspired by
her son Elijah, who was born with Downs Syndrome
and later diagnosed with autism.
UMCA envisions a world where every child with
special needs finds their unique creative voice and
lives an inclusive life while their families share a
journey of love and empowerment.

Lions Ormond Brathwaite, William Crumpe and James
Durrah as they worked with the children and their
parents. It was such a rewarding and inspirational
opportunity to do what Lions do best. "We Serve"
