Our Missionaries
Signs for Hope coordinates the adoption of Deaf orphans around the world and partners with families and communities in the lifelong journey of adoption. We believe partnering with missionaries who share our unique mission, vision, and calling is a strong fit for our organization. The gifts God has uniquely equipped them with help serve and advance the ministry impact of Signs for Hope both domestically and around the world.
It is good for us to remember that God has chosen to do the work of missions through the financial support of faithful saints. When God sent his Son to do the work of missions on the earth, he chose to provide for him through the faithful financial support of others. Luke 8:3

Often, people are surprised when told our missionary partners are responsible for raising their own support. Signs for Hope does not provide them with a salary. They receive funds from churches and individuals who want to be a part of what God is doing through their ministry with Signs for Hope. You may begin financially supporting our missionary partners through Signs for Hope effective immediately by selecting a missionary.
