Catholic Charities’ Office of Ministry & Life Enrichment for Persons with Disabilities along with the Diocese of Corpus Christi Office of Multicultural Ministry are working together in promoting throughout our diocese Deaf Awareness Week, September 19 – 25.
We have several videos and gatherings facilitated by many of our brothers and sisters who are deaf and those who serve in the ministry.
