Catholic Deaf Association Conference 2021

 

The next CDA Conference 

The Conference also marks the Golden Jubilee of the Catholic Deaf Association and will take place at the Merton Hotel in Jersey – click here for more details.

Full details of the Conference will be available nearer the time. It will be a great opportunity for all members and their friends to come together for some input, liturgical celebration and to socialise. There will be opportunities to explore the island whilst staying at a family hotel.

 

The family friendly hotel is fully accessible and welcoming,

and we look forward to spending this quality time together.

 

As the Conference is two years away, members have plenty

of time to save up for the Conference costs as well

as the travel expenses.

Our Mission

The Mission of the Catholic Deaf Association is to bring 'Good News' in sign language to Deaf people and enable them to pass it on to others. Therefore, the CDA encourages Deaf people to share in the Mass and the Sacraments and to participate and share fully in the life and mission of Church and society.

We recognise the rights and needs of Deaf People. We believe and acknowledge that Deaf People are a cultural and linguistic (BSL users) minority group.

We are committed to providing for the spiritual and pastoral needs of Deaf People, particularly those who are profoundly Deaf, including adults, and children and their families. 
We recognise the various ‘Faith communities’ and they are welcome to share with us. We recognise also the temporal challenges which more forcefully impact on Deaf people and have widened our brief to embrace the social welfare concerns of our community.
