Three Alabama churches hosted revival gatherings for the Deaf in October as part of Celebration 250 Alabama, a statewide prayer and worship initiative of the Alabama Baptist State Board of Missions.

Across three cities — Montgomery, Madison and Birmingham — the gatherings brought opportunities to share God’s Word through American Sign Language and to strengthen fellowship within Alabama’s Deaf community. The gatherings included sermons and worship in ASL and time for meals and group discussions.
