Mission Statement In Summary

Deaf World Ministries is an independent organization. We are an interdenominational ministry with an international perspective that provides information to those who have a call to reach out to the Deaf and Hard of Hearing  people group in the world who have little opportunity to know the Gospel.  Christians must go until all the Deaf have heard the gospel in their own language and it must happen NOW!

Often mission organizations go to a specific people group. In doing this they often overlook the Deaf in that people group and are ill equipped to reach them. Our desire is to provide information that will aid in adequately equipping those who want to go. That is to equip in information and attitude when reaching out to those in the Deaf culture. If we do not reach those who are Deaf in a people group, we miss almost 10% of the population! God is in love with those who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing. His heart is that ALL the nations be reached. This includes the Deaf Nation.

"Blindness separates people from things; deafness separates people from people." -Helen Keller

We believe that God created people for relationships. He created men and women to have a relationship with Him and with others around them. These relationships are essential to finding fulfillment and purpose. A relationship with God is essential to eternal life.

Many will not have the opportunity to know Jesus because they will not "hear" the Gospel in the conventional way. Jesus died and rose again that ALL may come to know Him. The Church of Jesus Christ is often referred to as sheep or a flock. Jesus said, "I have other sheep which are not yet in the fold. I must bring them, too."
