Bridging the gap between the deaf and hearing worlds for Jesus.

Who We Are

We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit Christian organization that bridges the gap between the deaf and hearing worlds for Jesus Christ.

Our ministry offers American Sign Language (ASL) classes for all ages and related programs throughout the year.

Performances & Outreach

As a ministry committed to bridging the gap between the deaf and hearing worlds we offer a wide range of real world, live classes to students between the ages 2 – 102 years old. Programs include community groups, homeschoolers, daycares, and private classes for children and adults. 

One of the core components of HANDPRINTS Ministries to serve our community through performances and outreach that bring the deaf and hearing together. For more than 40 years we’ve partnered with local churches, schools, and families to bridge the gap. 

Children Classes

Young children learn to communicate effectively using ASL. These classes are geared toward children ages 18 months to 17 years old. Each class promotes hand-eye coordination and interpersonal skills in a fun and upbeat environment.

Adult Classes

Whether you are looking to learning ASL for fun or desire to communicate more effectively with a member of your family that is hard of hearing or deaf, our adult classes meet in the evenings to fit into your busy schedule.

Homeschoolers

Our homeschool classes offer children and young adults a fun and unique opportunity to learn ASL as a second language. These classes often include a Christmas performance, recital, and more. 

Summer Camps

Every summer we partner with churches and schools in the community to host summer camps for children and youth. Each camp concludes with a live musical performance interpreted in American Sign Language that features Bible stories and video performance.
