Why don’t Deaf people just read the Bible?
As many as 80 percent of Deaf children in some countries never receive access to formal education. For those who can read, written language is a second language that requires extra effort.
How many sign languages are there in the world?
There are more than 350 unique sign languages. Each has its own structure and idioms that go beyond words.
How many sign languages have a video Bible translation?
Only American Sign Language has a complete Bible. Other sign languages have portions of Scripture, and we’re working on translation every day.
How many people use sign language every day?
For 70 million people worldwide, sign language is the first or only language they know and use daily. It’s what we call a heart language that connects deeply to a person’s identity.
How many Deaf people have been introduced to the gospel?
Around the globe, about 2 percent of Deaf people have been introduced to the gospel. A growing number of Deaf ministry leaders are using sign language Bible resources to serve their communities.
