NEJ Celebrates Thanksgiving

350 people attended the Annual Thanksgiving Feast hosted by the Peninsula-Delaware Conference Deaf Ministries at Grace Church (UMC) in Wilmington, DE.

The guest performer was Megg Rose of Deaf Women of Faith from California. Megg Rose is a wonderful, inspiring Deaf Christian sign artist. She shared her testimony and many songs with the Deaf people who attended. You can find her on YouTube, Facebook, and on her website.

People came from distances over 3 hours away and were inspired. Many of the Deaf people who attended do not have any Deaf ministry near them so this was an opportunity for us to all be together in praise and worship. This event was filled with food, fun and Christian fellowship.

We are grateful to Grace Church and our pastor, Rev Anne Pruett-Barnett, for their great support of Deaf ministries.
