We often talk about people groups who haven't had the opportunity to hear the gospel. In this case, it is the literal truth. The Deaf living in Morocco find themselves without many opportunities, spiritual or otherwise. Morocco doesn't have many resources for this community. As a result, the vast majority of Deaf children (about 85 percent) don't attend school. The school system can't provide the materials or the staff to help Deaf people learn. Therefore, Deaf people throughout Morocco—no matter their age—face similar challenges. While there is a Moroccan sign language, they are forced to teach themselves this language via videos and internet sites. There is a need for special schools for the Deaf in Morocco. Compassionate believers can fill this void.
Like the rest of the population in Morocco, the majority of the Deaf follow Islam. With no Scriptures available in Moroccan Sign Language, they have few opportunities to find out about the Savior.
Pray for the Deaf in Morocco to have the chance to understand and respond to the gospel. Pray for gospel materials to be produced in Moroccan Sign Language. Pray for the Deaf in Morocco to be blessed with the joy and peace offered by the Lord of lords.
