Who We Are

The Converge Deaf Catalyst Team is a team of Deaf & hearing leaders passionate about seeing a gospel movement in every least-reached Deaf people group, in our generation.

Why We Serve

Roughly 2% of the 70 million Deaf individuals in developing countries currently have access to the gospel story. Too many Deaf in every region of the world are born, live, and die without ever once encountering a follower of Jesus who can speak their language.

Deaf Catalyst Team Global Workers

Converge is committed to coming alongside churches to catalyze global partnerships that will spur gospel movements among Deaf people groups in the U.S. and worldwide. Without the targeted initiatives of Converge, many of the Deaf around the world will remain isolated and separated from the love of Jesus. We need your support. Your gift today will help engage Deaf Christian leaders to equip, empower, and strategically send workers to the largest unreached and unengaged people group.

  • Let's Connect

    We are asking God for a gospel movement among every least-reached people group in our generation, so everything we do is about building and maintaining strong relationships. Communication is key. So, let’s connect. If you would like to learn more about this ministry or how we can partner together, or if you have a general question, please reach out.
