[nagdu] Churches

[Pickrell, Rebecca M (TASC)]

Who did you speak to?
With the Catholics go up the chain to the bishop and whoever above him if you need to.

Assemblies of God. But I called a non-denominational and even a catholic
church even though I am not Catholic because I really wanted for us to
attend an Easter Service.

What denomination church are you looking for? I'm sorry, but ADA or not,
considering the mission/purpose of the church, not accepting you because of
your guide dog is just flat wrong, no matter the denomination.

Hello All,
I know churches are the only places that can deny us access. I don't
understand this since they have to follow ADA regulations for building
accessibility.
Anyway, I have been in Colorado a year and a half and have not yet found a
home church. This has been difficult for me because I am used to be active
in church. Well I decided Godiva and I needed to find an Easter service and
the two churches I called were friendly enough and would not come out and
say we would be denied access.
But one told me we would have to sit in the foyer and the security guard
would decide if we would be allowed in the sanctuary. Another church told me
we would have to sit in the back pew. Needless to say I am very
disappointed, and my heart hurts . I had no trouble attending church in
Texas when I go back.

Well I guess we won't be attending an Easter service.
