Merry Xmas! Happy New Year
Merry Christmas! Happy 6th day of the Octave of Christmas. Octave?? Yes, Octave, we as Catholics celebrate Christmas Day for 8 straight days.
Happy New Year!
As we conclude 2025 with the slow rebuild of our Deaf Community, we look and aspire in 2026 to be guided by the Holy Spirit to restructure, meet, plan, and implement a new way forward that: will once again offer Faith Formation Classes, field trips, bible studies, and social outings as done years ago.
What is needed for the above to happen; to start this process, we once again need have all previous and interested members to fill-out either a LiveScan Fingerprinting form OR a DOJ background check for clearance to be involved with adults and minors. Once we have processed all these diocesan protocol requirements, we can really begin having substantial conversations about the future of our community. If you are younger or over 18 years of age, and would like to get involved in our community, please email [email protected] we will get back to you promptly with the needed paperwork.
January 5th, diocesan employees return from vacation and back to work, which means around this time next week, we hope to receive our Deaf Community approved logo to start making our Polo & Jackets.
Celebrant schedule for January 2026:
January 4th: Fr. Mike
January 11th: Fr. Scott (confessions will be available)
January 18th: Fr. Steve (confessions To Be Determined)
January 25th: Fr. Steve (confessions To Be Determined)
¡Feliz Navidad! Feliz sexto día de la Octava de Navidad. ¿Octava? Sí, Octava, los católicos celebramos el Día de Navidad durante 8 días consecutivos.
¡Feliz Año Nuevo!
Al concluir el año 2025 con la lenta reconstrucción de nuestra Comunidad Sorda, esperamos que en 2026 el Espíritu Santo nos guíe para reestructurar, reunirnos, planificar e implementar un nuevo camino que nos permita ofrecer nuevamente clases de formación en la fe, excursiones, estudios bíblicos y actividades sociales, como lo hacíamos años atrás.
Para que esto suceda, para comenzar este proceso, necesitamos que todos los miembros anteriores e interesados completen un formulario de toma de huellas dactilares LiveScan o una verificación de antecedentes del Departamento de Justicia (DOJ) para obtener la autorización necesaria para trabajar con adultos y menores. Una vez que hayamos procesado todos estos requisitos del protocolo diocesano, podremos comenzar a tener conversaciones sustanciales sobre el futuro de nuestra comunidad. Si eres mayor de 18 años y deseas participar en nuestra comunidad, envía un correo electrónico a [email protected] y nos comunicaremos contigo a la brevedad con la documentación necesaria.
El 5 de enero, los empleados diocesanos regresan de vacaciones, lo que significa que, aproximadamente para esta misma fecha la próxima semana, esperamos recibir el logotipo aprobado de nuestra Comunidad Sorda para comenzar a confeccionar nuestras polos y chaquetas.
Horario de celebrantes para enero de 2026:
4 de enero: Padre Mike
11 de enero: Padre Scott (habrá confesiones disponibles)
18 de enero: Padre Steve (confesiones por confirmar)
25 de enero: Padre Steve (confesiones por confirmar)

Deaf ministry is growing at a fast pace. Why? Because more and more dioceses are addressing the needs of Deaf Catholics. The growth in parishes offering sacramental preparation creates the need to be in contact with one another. Having a phone number or email address helps a little bit but not really. Vision is important for Deaf and Hard of hearing people. So that is why being able to see where the Deaf churches are is important. By listing and mapping where every church is in the world we hope to be a beacon to dioceses worldwide with regards to Deaf ministry. Who knows who will use this feature in the world to make it better or develop something else more exquisite.
Fulfilling spiritual needs
Fulfilling the spiritual needs of so many Deaf is a huge task. It means knowing a little bit about Deaf culture and their world. Better yet it means knowing a lot about OUR world, the Deaf world. Our world needs vision. We need empowerment, a place to meet, and our Lord Jesus Christ. Empowerment is a dear term for us. Taking ownership of something and being given liberty to do cultivate our own is part of empowerment. It is being given all permission and approval but in keeping with what is honest, good, and true to make our lives live-able, enjoyable, and life-giving.
Church
Church provides us to a place to meet and access to our Lord Jesus Christ. His gifts, wishes, and zeal are given to others AND to us. He wants us to prosper. He wants us to be empowered so as to reach other Deaf and Hard of Hearing Catholics. But it does not stop there. He wants to go beyond to meet and preach the gospel. In his name we are conduits of His love. Where we go, how we live, and how we worship are indicators of our love to Jesus and His love toward us. It is a special bond of love. We want you have a map to be able to find Jesus anywhere in the world. Whether it is an American Sign Language mass or a mass said in any other sign language you will be able to find a place to go.
Find a Deaf church can be simple. Type in ‘ASL Catholic’ or ‘ASL mass’ in a search engine will provide you with a list of results. But, you will not find anything like what we have composed for you here. We provide the map, name of the church, and contact details.
More resources on how to get through the ASL mass parts and how to sign ASL Catholic prayers can be found here.
