Disability is Relentless.
So is Hope!
Hope brings joy on the brightest days and offers a glimmer of light to press on when the days are dark.
Celebrating 5 Years 2019-2024
There's a Place for You at the Table
Coaching Individuals
We coach and mentor people affected by disability to discover their strengths, learn to develop them and use them in their communities.
Helping Families
Whether you are a parent, spouse, child, or sibling of someone with a disability, your family member’s disability affects you. We count it a privilege to listen to the heart and stories of family members.
Assisting Churches
We understand churches don’t always know how to work together with people who have disabilities. Reach out to us and let us know your need. We’ll help you find the answer to your questions and share training, education, and support.
Hear From Others
“I love these guys. They are such good people. Working hard to take care of those with disabilities. Serving and loving the Lord by reaching the lost.”
“Seeds sometimes take a long time to grow. It was over 40 years ago that I met a young man sitting in a wheelchair who was starting Christian camp programs for people with disabilities. I was very impressed with the mission of Jerry and felt he was doing the real work of Christ while the rest of us were playing around the edges. Who would know that some 30 years later the seed Jerry planted would sprout into Removing the Barriers Initiative. It is great to know that Jerry is still planting seeds that only God can make grow. “
“Joan and Jerry Borton bring a wonderful gift set to life and to ministry. As a couple, not only do they have a depth of collective wisdom and experience–they are also rooted in the love and grace of God. Firmly believing in the transformational power of the gospel, they possess the all-too-rare quality of being fully present with people as they navigate life alongside of others. I have benefited from time spent with the Bortons and I’m sure you will too!”
