Northern New England Deaf Ministries

East Coast Discipleship Center

Established to train Deaf leaders for ministry within the context of their home church, under the direction of veteran pastors and qualified national instructors. The curriculum is aligned with the doctrines and practices of Assemblies of God, while being methodologically appropriate for Deaf learners.  Duane is a team member with Rev. Ed Graham who is an A/G US Missionary to the Deaf and national program director. Our vision is to equip local Deaf churches and ministries with pastors and ministry leaders.

International Outreach

Duane travels with various teams of Christians and make a bi-annual or yearly trip internationally. They go to support the Deaf pastors, preach to Deaf congregations & lend a hand at a Deaf school/conventions. Duane’s team has set up a Child Sponsorship Program with a $25 donation per month to help the poorest Deaf children in Kenya. In March 2007 we had a team to reach out to over 2000 Deaf people in Nigeria at a National Deaf Retreat.
