Four years ago an enthusiastic young deaf lady began her journey to the States for a college education. In Jamaica it is not made possible for the deaf to go to college. This past Wednesday night Tashi Bent shared her inspiring testimony with our sending church from Leo, IN. Tashi graduated this past month and now looks forward to using her education to minister to the deaf children of Jamaica. Tashi has been an inspiration to many that no matter what obstacles are placed in our life, we can achieve what God has for us. The teachers here at the CCCD campus will testify to the determination they saw in Tashi since she was just a little girl. As we pray for our students here, we hope they will understand that their deafness can be used as a ministry and not as a disability that inables them. As we take an examination of our own lives, we pray the obstacles we face will not disable us but they will be used to change us and better us, that God would be glorified!
Tashi, congratulations! Thank you for the inspiration that you've given to us. We look forward to serving the deaf of Jamaica along with you!
