ABSTRACT
The overarching assumption which ignited this book is that there is still need for more literature to adequately equip those who are doing pastoral work “among and with” people living with disability within the African context. Case studies presented in this book show that most of the Christian congregations, worship spaces and liturgy in Zimbabwe are not disability friendly. While persons with disabilities are marginalised and excluded, their experiences are different. Women with disabilities experience harsher conditions than their male counterparts. The needs and the experiences of women living with disability in these churches do not receive adequate attention compared to that of their male counterparts. This chapter explores challenges of gendered ministering to persons with disabilities.
