“In May 2024, we asked you to pray for Mr. Barber, his wife, and a friend who are the first Deaf believers in their city. We share with heavy hearts that, recently, Mr. Barber suddenly passed away. Pray for Mrs. Barber as she mourns with the hope that she will see her husband again in heaven. She continues to pursue growing in her faith, along with telling others about Jesus. Since no local church has a focused Deaf ministry or dedicated translator for sign language, she goes to a hearing church service. How do she and her friends understand the songs and sermons? The director of the Baptist Hospital Health College gives simple interpretations. In God’s plan, the director’s 10-year-old son is deaf. Because of her son, Mrs. Sylvia can communicate with Mrs. Barber. ‘Every week I go pick up Mrs. Barber and bring her to church,’ Mrs. Sylvia said. ‘She attends worship and always brings a friend. I am so happy she is willing to come and that our church warmly receives her.'” Please pray for a worker who will focus on helping the Deaf grow the Deaf church. Praise God these Deaf believers can have Christian community. Pray Mrs. Barber, Mrs. Sylvia, and her son will continue to share Jesus with the Deaf in this pioneering work.”
