Deaf Ministry
One of the largest countries in Central America is home to 600,000 deaf residents. This population is largely illiterate and has no access to the Bible in a format that they can understand. Only 1 of the 400 plus Deaf Languages has a Bible translation!
Advocacy Team Leader: Katie DeVillez & Adam Hubert
Partner: Pioneer Bible Translators
PBT translates the Bible and plants churches among the world’s least-reached people groups. Their focus is on those who are marginalized, those who live in hard-to-access places, an those who are deaf. The Evansville Deaf Community is also involved in the project.
Current Priority: We are focusing on developing our team and discerning our role in this multi-year project to translate and film the Action Bible in the local Sign Language.
