The purpose of this dissertation/project is to study the needs of handicapped children in Korea in light of a critical theological perspective and to develop guidelines for a ministry to them for the Korean church. Churches and ministers, ignorant and inexperienced in the mission to the handicapped, need practical guidance. But, first of all, Christians must see the disabled as persons of dignity and individual worth, as they have been created in the image of God. The churches should recognize the problems of the disabled and take leadership in eliminating the prejudices and unfairnesses prevailing in society. The subject of this paper was limited to mentally retarded children. Part 1 presents the general understanding of mentally retarded children; part 2 explores the biblical resources related to the education for mentally retarded children, the development of their spiritual characters and the church's sharing with them. In part 3 these investigations are incorporated into a practical program of church education. Finally, a number of suggestions and conclusions are offered.
