Catholic Catechism in ASL

Have you ever experienced someone asking you a question about your faith and you didn’t know how to answer?  For the first time in history, the Catechism is being translated into ASL!  The Catechism tells us what Catholics belief and why we believe it.  

NCOD is a proud sponsor of the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas Deaf Ministry who is spearheading this effort.  Watch the introduction video to learn more about how the ASL YouCat can be used in faith formation programs, RCIA, religious education, or just to help you learn your faith.
