I am asking for people who know the Old and New Testaments to help me.

I have a web site www.accessiblechurch.ca that is about helping your Church become accessible, by bringing down barriers to church and inside churches.

Here is a 1 hour lecture by a women with Autism. She is a best selling author, and in this video explains how autism can effect people, and simply explains the complexness of Autism Spectrum Disorders.It is from my web page www.accessiblechurch.ca, where I have many sorter videos by people in the ASD explain how it effects them.

I have always have trouble explaining autism and aspergers (a common type of High Functioning Asbergers). Whatever I read seems to be vague. However I recently realised that there were a lot of Youtube videos made by children, teens, and adults with Autism, Learning disabilities, and Aspergers.

I noticed a delegate brought up at GC this morning that he was unable to see the powerpoint presentation due to the use of a certain combination of colours.

The Powerpoint people dealt with it by switching to black and white. Good idea and quickly done. However it is still possible to use colour.

All I can see from the reports from the Artic commission is how the equal access resolution from Saskachewan will affect the ability of churches to refuse to perform same-sex weddings. I of course see the issue through the eyes of a gay man and support the resolution.

However I am also a person living with a disability and run the web site www.accessiblechurch.ca .
