There is only one complete Sign Language Bible Translation in the World
In October 2020 Deaf Missions completed the ASLV the first complete Sign Language Bible Ever. Most Sign Languages don’t even have partial translations
What Can you do?
Pray
DOOR has a monthly prayer calendar for the needs of Translation work and our Church Planting. There you can find specific ways to pray for our organization as we seek to bring the Bible to the Deaf Peoples of the world. Or you can commit to praying for a country that needs a translation started. The ones listed above are great but there are roughly 250 sign languages in the world and very few have translations started.
Support
DOOR is always excited to partner with people who are interested in seeing the Deaf World brought to Christ. There are a number of ways you can be involved in this mission.
