If you are looking to find a Mass in ASL you have come to right place. The Diocese of Orange has built a custom ASL mass finder for Deaf Catholics. This Mass finder tool extends to other countries too. If you know of any Catholic Churches that do Deaf ministry please contact us. Most Catholic Dioceses offer mass in American Sign Language. Most of the time they are ASL interpreted. Here in Orange County you can view our ASL Mass Schedule. Each sign language mass usually brings a lot of Deaf together. The mass fosters community and extends after the signed mass.
Over the years we attract many ASL students from surrounding high school and colleges. A good number take the initiative to use their new language and involve themselves in Deaf ministry. The starting place for most of them is to interpret the mass in American sign language. They look to see in their busy schedule how to fill a position in our ASL mass schedule. The Deaf at large enjoy interpreted music in every signed mass.
