Blended is a ministry focused on bringing Deaf and Hearing together! We do this by providing resources for blended families, bridging gaps between the Deaf and Hearing communities, encouraging sign language communication, offering advocacy services, and holding weekly worship gatherings in an equal access environment.
One of our main goals is to bring blended families (of Deaf and Hearing) closer together. The primary way of accomplishing this is helping these families learn to communicate. Through courses like these, one-on-one ASL tutoring, and large events, we are blessed to see blended families come together, forming a stronger bond!
