A special non-denominational meeting to learn about more about God will be
happening in Austin, Texas in just a few weeks. Many churches in central
Texas are working together to sponsor the Austin Deaf Crusade called “Jesus
is Mine 2009?.
This whole event is FREE. It will be in ASL as the first language,
with voice interpreters for non-signing English speakers. Other special
needs can be met upon request.
Everything will be held at the Monarch Event Center, 6406 N. I-35, Suite
3100, in Austin, Texas (near I-35 and the 2222, on the east side of Highland Mall).
Three different awesome speakers are coming from out of town for this
huge event – more than 250 D/deaf and hard-of-hearing persons are expected
to come. Already more than 250 people from all over the state of Texas
have signed up. John Graham (Deaf) from Canada will be the main speaker for
the adults. Nathan Fylstra (Deaf) from Oklahoma will be the main speaker
for youth ages 12-21. “Miss Vonda” Hamilton (Hearing) from North Texas will
be the main speaker for children ages 5-12.
In addition to the speakers, there will be music (ASL style),
exhibit booths, the opportunity for you to get a free lunch, “moonwalks”
bounce for kids, youth activities, chatting, and more surprises! Bring the
whole family! Tell your friends!
The doors open on Friday night at 6 PM with the first meetings at 7 PM
for adults, youth, and kids. It continues all day on Saturday with
doors opening at 9:00 AM; 10:00 AM meetings for adults, youth, and kids;
free lunch for ticketed people; afternoon fun and games for everyone; and
the final meetings at 4:00 PM for adults, youth, and kids. Also childcare
for pre-school children ages 0-4 will be there during each of the 3
meeting times.
See the crusade website for info about the full schedule, local
hotels, speakers bios, maps and bus routes, a video invitation in ASL,
free registration page, and much more.
Sign up! Registration ends soon! It is all FREE! Registering will help
us get a headcount of how many kids and youth are coming, and how many
lunches to provide on Saturday.
