Some surveys estimate the US deaf population is 95-98% unchurched. Your Central Illinois District is committed to reaching deaf/hard-of-hearing individuals. In Jacksonville in addition to typical congregational events, we reach out to the students at Illinois School for the Deaf through a weekly "Good News Club." Current preaching stations include Jacksonville (multiple events weekly), Normal (1st & 3rd Sundays), monthly parish-wide workshops, and regional deaf retreats at Camp CILCA.  On request, Pastor Phillips also provides support to congregations ministering to deaf/hard-of-hearing individuals. Contact Pastor Phillips to schedule a mission presentation or school chapel service.
