Is thistrueASL?
American Sign Language is the primary language of the Deaf community. It's a dynamic language and is continually evolving. It has its own grammatical structure, rules, and syntax separate from any spoken language. It is used all over the country with sign variations from region to region. These signs are called regional signs, also known as "signing accents". The signs used in our videos are based on our particular region and may differ from other areas. The translation process is a very laborious procedure. The lyrics from each song are analyzed carefully to find the true meaning and message behind them. They are then put into an ASL form which allows the message and concept to be conveyed, while at the same time, visually matching the song's rhythm. It's important to remember that signing to music is a creative expression and varies depending on an individual's perspective.

Blended is a ministry focused on bringing Deaf and Hearing together! We do this by providing resources for blended families, bridging gaps between the Deaf and Hearing communities, encouraging sign language communication, offering advocacy services, and holding weekly worship gatherings in an equal access environment.
One of our main goals is to bring blended families (of Deaf and Hearing) closer together. The primary way of accomplishing this is helping these families learn to communicate. Through courses like these, one-on-one ASL tutoring, and large events, we are blessed to see blended families come together, forming a stronger bond!
