Deaf Ministry in Kisumu



Deaf Ministry was started in 2004 in Kisumu, Kenya.
Its mission is to spread the word of God to Deaf children and adults throughout Nyanza Province of Western Kenya. The members' activities include:
- Organizing sports competitions for Deaf and hearing
- Providing Deaf awareness and sign language recognition to the general public through drama
- Providing guidance and counseling for Deaf people in areas such as health and
employment
- Encouraging self-sufficiency with projects such as vegetable growing.
The vision of the deafministry is to meet the social and spiritual needs of the deaf, and deafblind people through innovation christian work.

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

1. Child and student sponsor

Deaf ministry is providing an opportunity for the deaf/deafblind in western Kenya to get an education. Without this help ,the cycle of poverty and ignorance will continue. By sponsoring one or two of these children or young adults you are helping us to break that chain.

For $35 USD,15 Pound or 35 EURO per month you can help us to equip them to lead full and productive lives.

2. Evangelist and church support

Deaf ministry is represented on every church for the deaf. 15 churches are bringing GoodNews to the deaf and deafblind people. Your financial and prayful support of a deaf worker is one way that you help the spread the gospel to the deaf and deafblind peolple.

3. Sponsor a project

How about an agricultural project, sewing workshop, carpentry, health project, camp, sign language project, deaf/deafblind awareness project and among others. These projects are to help deaf/deafblind people in need of employments and self esteem.
