Barbara Craig, wife of Arthur Craig, pastor to the deaf at Woodhaven
Baptist Deaf Church in Houston, Texas
Barbara Craig was born and raised in Georgia. She married Arthur Craig
and had resided in South Carolina. She was interested in taking sign
language class and asked her husband to accompany her to the classes.
That was the moment that Arthur Craig had a calling–to minister to the
deaf.
They moved to Fort Worth, Texas so Arthur Craig could attend seminary
school. After the graduation, Arthur got a job in Houston to be a
pastor of Woodhaven Baptist Deaf Church.
Together, they dedicates their lives to Lord. They helped minister to
the deaf community in Houston and does numerous of missionaries all
over the world. While the resources for the deaf in Houston are very
limited, the deaf people often rely on Pastor Craig and his wife, and
they would give up their personal time to assist them and their
families. They are very remarkable couple who are most selfless people
I ever known.
Pastor Craig and his wife’s youngest son, Brian was killed in
Afghanistan in 2002. Pastor Craig serves as a Chaplain of EOD Memorial
and help families of loved ones who died in the war every year in
Florida.
Last May, Pastor Craig was scheduled to take a flight to Africa to do
missionary work for the deaf in the village, he got the news that
Barbara’s diagnois, the cancer have returned but this time it has been
extremely aggressive. It has spread to her lung, liver and spinal. She
is truly remarkable breast cancer survivor and yet this did not deter
her from working at the office at Woodhaven Baptist Deaf church, and
helping the deaf community.
Barbara and her family will incur many out-of-pocket expenses. I hope
by having this fundraising campaign will help to alleviate some of the
financial burden and will enable their family to focus on Barbara’s
recovery. The campaign goal is set at $5,000. Let’s show them the
support by raising the fund to help the family!
