OC Deaf Ministry in Orange County California is home at Christ Our Savior Catholic Parish in Santa Ana. You are able to find on our platform Catholic Churches doing California Deaf ministry. You can find such churches on the Mass and Confessions page. OC Deaf and hard of hearing ministry is growing. Deaf Christians are returning to the true Church of Christ. We are glad. Subsequently, we are taking up the mantle to offer sacramental preparation to suit the needs of the faithful. However, we are still searching on behalf of Christ for more souls. Deaf Outreach is best done when Deaf reach Deaf. In a few years time considering the growth rate we see we will be the biggest California Deaf Church.
California Deaf Ministry
California is a big state. There are a lot of churches in California. Though not many have an extensive Deaf program. In California there are a number of churches that have a full scale religious program tailored for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing.
In the archdiocese of San Francisco Fr. Paul Z. is pastor at St. Benedict’s parish. He has been pastor for more than a decade serving the Deaf there. He is a Deaf pastor leading the Deaf. In the Archdiocese of Los Angeles at Holy Angels parish Fr. Tom S. leads the Deaf flock. Deaf outreach in Los Angeles really strong because at Holy Angels it is a personal parish for the Deaf and Hard of hearing.
The Diocese of Orange is shepherded by a number of priests. A couple of them know enough sign language to hear confessions, preach, communicate in ASL. The other priests have been attached with the Deaf community for decades now. They are faithful in their service to satisfy the spiritual needs of many.
OC Ministry
The OC Deaf and hard of hearing ministry has it’s own Facebook page and this website to promote our presence in the Greater Los Angeles, Orange County, San Bernardino, and San Diego area. Over the years each Deaf parish in all of these areas have frequently met and done retreats together to foster greater unity amongst leaders and the faithful.
We are proud to announce that we have the only ASL mass finder in the nation, maybe even the world. You are able to find for example, the mass times our Deaf community by clicking our location on the map. And if you know of any other parishes that need to be on the map contact us.
ASL Sign for Catholic
ASL Sign for Catholic. These four words encompass what our Deaf Church lives and breathes. We communicate in American Sign Language. We are the light of the world as followers of Christ to all. It appears to many of us that the world is deaf. It does not listen to words and teaching of Christ as the way, the truth, and the life.
ASL Sign for Catholic
Being a follower of Christ involves carrying our cross. What better way than to show to the world the cross we carry than on our foreheads. For our intellect or mind gives command to our actions and words. We intentionally follow the Lord and the way of life he led to become more like unto him.
Want to know more signs? Check out the rest of the resources in our website. Better yet, visit us on Sundays.
The video to the left demonstrates how to sign the word Catholic in ASL. Why is it done this way? In Lent we receive ashes on their forehead. The dark ashes worn by the faithful on ash Wednesday is a indicator that someone is likely Catholic.
The picture below is an Ash Wednesday comical relief.
Catholic
Catholic ASL Deaf Church Community in the Diocese of Orange, California. We follow Jesus Christ which makes us Christian. Followers of Christ all over the world is summed up with being universal followers. We are Catholic because the word itself means ‘universal.’ Christianity is predominantly Catholic even though there are many denominations. Our Catholic-Christian Deaf ministry is centered on the Eucharist. Our efforts here for brothers and sisters in Christ to seek to receive the sacraments especially the Eucharist.
Hallmarks of the Catholic faith is the hierarchy. We have the vicar of Christ on earth, the pope. We also have cardinals, bishops, priests, deacons, religious brothers and sisters, and the lay faithful. This body of faith in unique and diverse that it cultivates life as we have grace within us. Our prayer is that we all are united in Jesus Christ. That we confess to one faith, one church, and one Lord of all.
Catholic
An interesting fact about the Catholic faith is that you can go anywhere in the world and the service is the same. The mass, the unbloody sacrifice is offered unto God the Father just as on Calvary. It is not a new and separate sacrifice aside from Christ’s it is the same. Our notion of time thinks that it is impossible to do, say, and believe such a thought.
Time is a creation of God that we humans know and experience. However, with God it is not the case. He is outside of time. He gives us his one eternal sacrifice throughout all time. The scriptures attest that the lamb was already slain from the foundations of the world.
Mass
We Catholics take Jesus’ words really seriously even more so than Baptists, Adventists, Methodists, Jehovah Witnesses, Mormons, and all others. Our Lord’s words are placed in the proper context. A sure way to be sure to stand behind such teachings and decrees of the Church is to look at all the councils, synods, and responses to heresies. They all attest to the same truth that the Church proclaims.
Eucharist
John 6:53-58
53 Jesus said to them, “Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you. 54 Whoever eats[a] my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. 55 For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. 56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. 57 Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me. 58 This is the bread that came down from heaven. Unlike your ancestors who ate and still died, whoever eats this bread will live forever.”
We truly believe that Jesus’ body, blood, soul and divinity is present in the Catholic mass.
ASL
