Deaf ministryOn July 24, twenty-two people made their way to Ozark Adventist Academy at Gentry, Arkansas to go to school. This was the second lay training program of Deaf people, Deaf Reach 2005. Adventist Deaf Ministries (ADM) sponsored Deaf Reach 2005, with support from the North American Division of the General Conference of Seventh Day Adventists. This was the second time a weeklong intensive training was developed to train Adventist Deaf people on how
to talk to their friends about Jesus and what He has done for us. The first one was held last year. Twenty-two people, from ages nineteen years old to seventy, came from all over the country and other places. We had attendees from Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Maryland, Michigan, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington. One came from Texas, whom is involved with Deaf ministry in Mexico. Another came from Toronto, Canada. But our award for most distance traveled would go to a young man from Barbados. The deaf Ministry is one of the newest focus ministry groups at Lover's Lane, a special ministry groups at Lovers Lane, a special ministry that has grown over the past three years into a vital spiritual connection for deaf and hard of hearing persons in our community. At Lover's Lane, we are committed to helping those who seek the fellowship of a church family and weekly worship, yet feel separated from traditional services because of their communication needs.
