A Speaker's Distractions

:laugh::laugh: You been watching too many Bugs Bunny cartoons, Jim!!!:laugh::laugh:

Makes me think of an old saw my Mom uses when she had a hard time getting out of bed - "I was so tired I had to get behind myself and push to get up this morning!"

 

Yes, I meant signing. I have been in the first deaf church in Canada in Toronto which was started by a football player. They have both a verbal and signed service combined. There is no pulpit.

These days they use the screen for a number of things. Some people were just hearing impaired and not deaf, so the church had hearing aids in the pews as well.

It was a very interesting experience. I learned to sign a little, but never got enough experience to fully communicate with anyone....just privately. I did learn there was a difference between signing in England and signing in Canada...we use American sign in Canada.

In my Kingston church, we had a full pew near the front with hearing equipment and we got quite a few hearing impaired parishioners who didn't go to church before.

Cheers, and bless,

Jim

 

When I was in college, my speech teacher videotaped our speeches and we had to watch them. It was very revealing! After that, we were more conscious of how we presented ourselves.

 

Sounds like someone had MIC envy... Not everyone get's to blow the old snozzle in front of a mic... :BangHead:
