Ephphatha Mission for the Deaf

Ephphatha Mission for the Deaf is part of a national ministry with Episcopalians who are hard of hearing. Sign language interpretation is offered every Sunday at 10 A.M. Normally, on the 1st Sunday of every month a deaf missioner from Syracuse, the Rev. Virginia Nagel, celebrates and preaches for the community in the church chapel. Our Rector is able to communicate in sign language.
