OUR CHAMPIONS by Jen Watts
Launched in 2013, Champion’s Club is a 3,200-square-foot facility designed specifically to meet the needs of kids with special needs. The building is equipped with such features as an oversized keyboard kids can play with their feet, black lights for its sensory room, and large rockers with heavy blankets. The building is divided into four rooms: a worship area, a play room, a sensory room, and an education center where kids learn Bible stories and sign language. As Canyon Hills planned to open Champion’s Club, we discovered the need for a similar program for adults, so we also offer Big Champ’s every Sunday morning in the Gym for adults with special needs. The gym is setup with areas designated for crafts, snacks, games, a lesson and more. We’d like to introduce you to a few families who have been blessed by this wonderful ministry.
