This weekend Camp Aranzazu welcomed Heart Sign, a sign language ministry group of deaf and hearing adults. Their goal is to bridge the gap between the hearing and the deaf in their community. This weekend provided a forum for deaf and hearing adults to understand how they can better teach and mentor children who are deaf, children from families with deaf siblings or parents as well as hearing children who want to learn more about sign language and deaf culture. The weekend focused on team building, teaching, sharing and storytelling. Many laughs, smiles and jokes were exchanged as the group learned more about each other and their common purpose. Camp Aranzazu is excited to continue this new partnership and looks forward to seeing Heart Sign again!
