Deaf Fellowship Frederick Church of the Brethren
We’re a place that says “community.” Not just “Deaf community,” but new community—built on truth, relationships, and genuine love and concern for each other. We think you’ll feel at home here—whatever your background. You won’t find people who think they have all of life’s answers or are perfect. You will find people who celebrate life’s joys, who grieve life’s disappointments, who make mistakes…and who have been forgiven by the God of creation through His Son, Jesus.
