Not just a fun fair.
A feeling of belonging.

The Differently Abled Fun Fair, affectionately called DAFF, was founded by Bishop Rosie O’neal and is spearheaded by our current pastors: Pastor Trev & Lady Martha Evans and Pastors Shondell & Christy Jones.

Created for individuals with severe and profound disabilities or illnesses, our VIPs, and their immediate families and caregivers, it’s a safe, supportive place to play, connect, and feel loved. No pressure to fit in. Just room to be you.
