It was undeniable that persons with disabilities experience discrimination in various fields of life, including church services. The research method used was qualitative; conducted in-depth and open observations, focused interviews, and selected interviews with selected informants. The research objective was to find a model of discipleship for congregations with disabilities in the M Malang Church. The findings of the research suggest that the model of discipleship in the M Malang church was a combination of equipping through teaching Christian values, building attitudes, and empowering the congregation. The pastor prioritizes empowerment with mission trip activities as a model of discipleship for congregations with disabilities.
