Place of Worship

Regular worship services are held at 10am on Sundays at:
The Royal Deaf Society Chapel
262 South Terrace
Adelaide SA 5000

At normal services at the Deaf Chapel, both hearing and deaf people are warmly invited to visit. Before visiting, it is advisable to check that a service is being held on that day.

There will not usually be a service on the 4th Sunday of each month. On these 4th Sundays, the Deaf Community Church plans to visit another congregation. They run a deaf worship service at the regular worship time, showing how deaf worship is carried out, and asking for prayers and support

If you would like the Deaf Community Church to visit your worship centre, contact the "Friends" Chairman.

Support the Ministry

This congregation is a small yet growing Community Church. Deaf people usually are unable to obtain top paying employment so the support that they themselves can give is limited. Some feel that Christ died for the "Hearies" and that the Deaf are somehow excluded. They need reassurance that they too have the promise of salvation.

How you can help:

• Pray

  Deaf people need lots of prayer as they struggle to live in this hearing world and learn of their Lord and Saviour.

• Visit

  Please come and experience a Deaf Service. It is a most rewarding experience. You will have no problems understanding the service, as the Deaf take great care that the "hearies" can understand what is going on.

• Financial Assistance

  Donations can be made through the LCA Online Donations facility. Alternatively, Donations can be sent to the Pastor, Chairman or Secretary.
  Thirdly, a facility for regular Electronic Giving has been set up. Arrangements can be made to regularly transfer from a personal bank account to the Adelaide Deaf Community Church account. The minimum amount is $10 per month (that's 33 cents a day).
