Tears of appreciation at the end of the third Alioceworkshop session



All Adam did was to ask all the parents of deaf children to come forward and put their fingers over their ears so that their hearing was impaired. He then got one of the parents to give some simple instructions like; turn around or sit down.

After this exercise I found three of them crying but all they could do was to show signs of appreciation. Their worlds had been turned upside down, they had started to identify with their deaf child in a new and loving way.


Drama, fun and games was all part of the afternoon and Revd Allen closed with prayers.

After days like this I have no doubt as to why we are here. ‘The blind shall see and the deaf shall hear’ declares the Lord. Halleluiah. They did today.
