Deaf: The Final Frontier of the Great Commission
Deaf people collectively are considered to be one of the largest unreached people groups in the world today. In this workshop, you’ll find out:
- Why less than 2% of Deaf people attend church on a given Sunday;
- Why the Deaf are so close to God’s heart;
- What Scripture resources are currently available to Deaf communities worldwide (and future progress);
- What best practices look like in Deaf ministry;
- Who are some major partners working in these areas; and
- What practical things your church or organization can do to get involved.
