STORIES FROM THE FIELD

Some names have been changed for security purposes.

ENTRY

Deaf Balkans

A Deaf survey team went to Croatia and Serbia in November 2021. Their purpose was to glean as much information as they could about the Deaf Community there, regarding to their culture, education, social norms and spirituality. This information was then used to develop a plan that will provide access to Scripture in the context of community-based gatherings. This new access to Scripture in their natural language will result in the community’s spiritual development.
