Because the Deaf have a common language and a close bond, we desire to minister to the community as a whole. It's our desire to transcend racial, denominational, and socioeconomic lines in order to reach people. We want to be inclusive of all those who desire to fellowship and follow the Lord! Our Lord Jesus never told us to select those we think would "fit in". Rather, the Lord Jesus gave us these instructions: Jesus said to His followers,
"Go everywhere in the world, and tell the Good News to everyone." (Mark 16:15)
