Deaf Ministry in Kenya, Part Two - Interview with B. J. Cormier

<p>On today’s program we resume our interview with missionary B. J. Cormier. A good bit of the conversation in part one of this interview centered on language-learning. Language acquisition is always an important and challenging element of effective cross-cultural mission work. But for Bro. Cormier, in addition to acquiring the Swahili language to communicate verbally to Kenyans, he also had to learn a new variety of sign-language to communicate with the deaf that he was seeking to minister to. In this program we pick up right where we left off as Bro. Cormier recounts his education in Kenyan Sign Language as well as how their church’s deaf ministry got a jump start in a very unexpected way.</p> <p>This is the second part of a two-part interview on deaf missions in Kenya.</p> <p>Your feedback is welcome.
