Our Mission
We are an office of the Archdiocese of St Louis, established to coordinate pastoral outreach, faith formation, sacramental and chaplaincy services to our Deaf, late-deafened, hard of hearing, and deaf-blind Catholics and their families. CDM works in collaboration with other Archdiocesan agencies and parishes to effectively integrate Deaf Catholic culture and community into the life and ministries of the Archdiocese of St. Louis.
Who We Serve
We serve all Catholics that are Deaf, late-deafened, hard-of-hearing, deaf-blind, and their families in the ten counties that comprise the Archdiocese of St Louis. Our liturgies are all celebrated in American Sign Language, without voice interpretation. We seek to support parents of Deaf children as well, so please know that you are all welcome! Fr Dan is available to meet for confessions using voice or ASL here at CDM, or he can meet you where you live.
