Sign Language Schools

In order to effectively reach the Deaf for Christ, workers need to be able to communicate with the Deaf. This is why the Bill Rice Ranch is burdened to teach sign language. Every year the Ranch conducts a Sign Language School in the middle of the busy summer at our campsite in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Also, many people have learned sign language through Dr. Cathy Rice’s time-tested beginning sign language DVD/textbook course, Sign Language for Everyone.

West Branch on the Move now provides a way to begin a deaf ministry in your local church! Through a regional sign language school, you can learn enough sign language to get started. We will also help you locate the Deaf in your area so that you can share the gospel with them. For more information, please contact us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
