Handicap Accessibility
Avondale United Methodist strives to be a place of welcome to all people, regardless of physical abilities. However, because many parts of our facilities are almost a century old, some parts of the church have limited handicap access. The following suggestions should help persons with physical challenges participate in the life of the church.
Designated handicap parking spaces are available in the 5th Avenue parking lot and along 40th Street.
Wheelchair Access
