Purpose of Workshop
This workshop helps hearing friends meet and learn with Deaf people. You will learn how to communicate better with Deaf friends.
Most Deaf people in the world (about 98%) do not know Jesus. In Texas, about 345,000 Deaf people have not learned about Him yet. Many Deaf people are hard to find because they mix with hearing people.
You will learn:
Basic ASL signs
Deaf culture and community
Bible stories with acting
This workshop helps our church communicate better with Deaf members and share God’s love with more Deaf people.

At 3:00 PM, Seminarian Daniel Heitshusen received his vicarage (think year-long internship) assignment.
He and Rachel will be headed about 2 hours south of St. Louis to Cape Girardeau, MO. where they will serve the good people of Hanover Lutheran Church under the supervision of The Rev. Rod Benkendorf. (Pastor Benkendorf and Pastor Scott were classmates in college at Concordia-NE.)
Daniel will have some preaching, visitation, and teaching duties (including a 6:00 AM Bible class on Fridays!).
They are very excited and looking forward to beginning their time at Hanover sometime in July. (Specific date TBD.)

In addition, you may recall that on February 5, LifeBridge extended a Call to soon-to-be Deaconess Becky Jungklaus to serve as a “Missionary at Large” in the deaf community. That reality took another step forward with her receipt of that Call through the LCMS Council of Presidents (who serve as the Board of Assignments)!
Becky will finish some remaining courses this summer and we will Install her in the Fall.

We praise and thank the Lord for His goodness of sending workers into the Harvest – and that LifeBridge is able to be a part of this vital and exciting effort!
Please continue to keep Daniel, Rachel, Becky, and the people of Hanover Lutheran as well as our own community in prayer!
