This past weekend I was invited to a Catholic mass for the deaf here in Newton. The parish’s deacon is soon to become one of 6 deaf priests in the country. It was amazing to see the signs for religious vocabulary; up on the alter, the expressive language almost seems like a stage performance.
This young deaf girl is getting ready to make her first communion, and is learning about the Eucharist and goblet of wine.
I am selling photos at SoWa this summer—an open air art market in Boston's beautiful and artsy South End. One more date left: come visit on Sept 27.

These are so beautiful! Thank you!
This is not Roman Catholic way. This is a liturgical abuse.
