The deaf ministry exists to minister to those within the Oklahoma City deaf community. With their unique language and culture, First Southern is a place where the deaf and hard-of-hearing can readily worship, study the word of God, and fellowship together with their families. Besides the weekly scheduled times, we also have special fellowship times throughout the year.
