DeafNation Expo is the foremost touring trade show for, by, and about deaf people.   We host a booth to share about Jesus.  We give away 100’s of Children’s Bible Story Books donated to us during the year plus over 100 Bibles. 
Please join us in praying for all the Deaf people as the Holy Spirit works in their lives

We Need Your Help  

12/15/2013

0 Comments

 
98% of deaf people have no way of knowing about the love and salvation that Jesus Christ gives each of us every day.
We thank God for all of the faithful people who continue to give and share your time and resources for Deaf Ministry – thank you.
How can you help?  Pray for us, share this ministry with members of your congregation or hold a 5th Sunday door offering for Deaf Ministry.
As you share information with your congregation about Deaf ministry ask if they know of deaf people in their area and share those names with us. 
We need your help to continue bringing deaf people to know of Jesus.  All money raised will be used to pay costs to continue this ministry.  This includes paying the salaries of our two pastors.
If you wish to send a donation to Our Savior Deaf Lutheran Church to help us continue to pay the salaries of our pastors, please send it to:
 
Our Savior Deaf Lutheran Church

Janesville, WI 53547
 
 
Online giving coming soon!

Dawn and Loreena were installed as DIT Deaconesses at Our Savior Deaf Lutheran Church in Madison, Wisconsin.
Dawn will continue to help in the Madison area.  She helps teach ASL Bible studies, visits the shut-ins and visitors,  makes hospital visits, and works with the coordinating events at the church. 
Loreena lives in Duluth, Minnesota.  She continues to reach out to the deaf people in the Duluth area with leading Bible Studies and visiting Deaf people.  She also leads studies over the internet and does a lot of contacts and outreach with Deaf family and friends on the videophone (it is similar to Skype).

We would like to thank the people who have continued to support the mission and ministry of Emmanuel Lutheran Church of the Deaf (Milwaukee area), Our Savior Deaf Lutheran Church (Madison, WI) and Holy Cross Lutheran Church (Delavan, WI).
We continue to give thanks for the mission grant from the South Wisconsin District — LCMS.  The grant makes it possible for us to continue to pay the health insurance for our pastors and their families.
Your gifts make it possible for us to continue to pay the salaries of our two pastors who teach us how to share Jesus with deaf  people in the Southern Wisconsin/Northern Illinois stateline area.

Jesse Tree

12/15/2013

Have you ever made a Jesse Tree?  It’s name is from Isaiah 11:1 - "A shoot will spring forth from the stump of Jesse, and a branch out of his roots." 
I love this picture in Advent.  We start with a bare branch and we add different symbols each day to show God’s promises from the Old Testament – a boat for Noah, burning bush for Moses, etc…  leading up to Jesus.  No matter if everything else falls away (bare branch), God’s promises always come true.
Sometimes I think of Deaf Ministry this way.  It feels like it is being cut off,  there are many challenges, what will happen next?  The Jesse Tree helps me remember all the faithful people God has placed around us.  He stays faithful to His people, He fulfills ALL His promises.  He will continue to do the same for us!
This year as I think of the Jesse Tree, I am not only thinking about all the faithful people in the past, I am also thinking of you!  Though someday everything else will be gone, we thank God for His faithfulness to us, and to the many people He is helping us touch with the truth of His Word.  As you see the bare branches this time of year, imagine them filled with the faces of all the people whose lives are changed because of your support! 
Merry CHRISTmas!
