The Bailey Center for Special Needs - Going Beyond Boundaries

✨ Week 4 Prayer Guide ✨

As we enter the final week of prayer, we lift up parents and caregivers who faithfully walk in love, sacrifice, and service. May they feel welcomed, supported, refreshed, and deeply loved—knowing their sacrifices matter and their faithfulness is seen by God.

This week also brings us into event week and Night to Shine itself. We pray for safe travel, favorable weather, clear roads, and strength for every team and coordinator. May every detail fall into place at just the right time, and may joy overflow in every room.

As we celebrate, we praise God for His goodness and faithfulness. May His presence be unmistakable, His Gospel lived out boldly, and His glory on full display through every moment.

🙏 To God be all the glory.

Congrats to Miss Alicia on being recognized as Volunteer of the Year by the Virginia Master Naturalist Program. We are so thankful to have her as part of our Bailey Center Family!

02/03/2026

Thankful for our partnership with these two wonderful organizations and the opportunity to serve our community in this capacity. 💙

Partners within the Information and Resource Collaborative work together to provide free support to individuals and families in Virginia as they navigate autism-related resources. By collaborating, these partners enhance resource sharing and work together to identify gaps in services and supports that individuals and families are facing.

Resource Navigators go beyond sharing a list—they provide personalized, compassionate guidance. 💙 Through active listening, they tailor resources to each family’s unique needs, explain options in detail, and follow up with clear summaries and direct links. Taking a holistic, proactive approach, Navigators help families access essential supports now and plan for what’s next—building pathways to services today and confidence for the future.
