Testimonial
"Our deaf ministry, which is called "Word Became Flesh," is led by Jennifer Fisher. Each Sunday she signs to the deaf participants in both services. In one of the services one of the ladies who is completely deaf was watching Jennifer to 'hear' the message and then in turn was signing into the hands/palms of an elderly man sitting beside her who was both deaf and blind. It was amazing to see how the Word literally became flesh on that Sunday from Pastor's lips, to Jennifer's ears, through her hands, into a deaf woman's eyes, and they through her hands to the hands of the gentleman who couldn't see or hear, communicating the gospel of Jesus Christ! Amen."
