Though there are still some details to complete in the move from our old 8 year home in Brookhaven, Pa (which, by the way, we loved...the location and the First Church of God people) to the new South Philly home; we're moved!


Philly Deaf had been leasing space from the First Church of God congregation in Brookhaven, Pa for eight years, after we had been at Full Gospel Assembly of God in Brookhaven for seven years.  The location change was due, in part, to two variables.  First, because of the change in ministry times and days, the finances of the ministry had declined so that we were not able to continue paying the lease cost on an on-going basis.  Second, there was a need for Philly Deaf to become more accessible to the Deaf community of South and West Philadelphia, proper.  Calvary Temple of South Philadelphia graciously opened their doors to the Philly Deaf ministry, and it became the Philly Deaf South location.


We continue to meet in Kensington (north philly) but the name has changed from Philly Deaf K Chat, to Philly Deaf North.  So that the names of: K Chat (Kensington) and B Chat (Brookhaven) have become:  Philly Deaf North and Philly Deaf South.


We've come full circle.  Deaf Christian Church (DCC) that started in Brookhaven in 1995 actually started in 1993...where?  Right! Calvary Temple in South Philadelphia.  Now 16 1/2 years later, we met for the first Deaf service this past Sunday evening, September 27, 2009.  Praise the Lord!
