Deaf Ministry

The mission of Deaf Ministry is to provide priestly pastoral care and the full scope of the liturgy and Catholic Sacraments to deaf Catholics through the parish of Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Northeast Minneapolis. The Archdiocesan Office for the Deaf joined with this parish in 1986, and today, there are over 150 registered families. With only four percent of the U.S. deaf population identifying as Christian, Deaf Ministry is a mission field ripe for growth!
