Key takeaway Further details about DOOR International's efforts to share the Gospel with Deaf people are available from the source.
Many Deaf people struggle to learn about Jesus Christ due to lack of access to information in sign language. This can be the case even for those who grow up in Christian families. A ministry called DOOR International aims to change this by reaching out to Deaf people through sign language.
Deaf individuals often face challenges in reading and typically do not receive education until they are between six and eight years old. This can hinder their understanding of the Gospel. Further details about DOOR International's efforts to share the Gospel with Deaf people are available from the source.
