The editorial staff of TBN-Russia channel receives lots of responses from deaf people by birth. They also come from Azerbaijan. People write that Russian language is almost forgotten in their country. The youth doesn"t speak Russian at all, but sign language still remains international and it is still understood by the deaf from different countries.  The Azerbaijan audience is thankful to the TV channel 'TBN-Russia' for the programs with gesture-translation. They watch them with great pleasure and now they know what happens in the world and in Church.

There is an opinion that as time goes by sign language will be changed in every country with consideration of international peculiarities. Then understanding will probably be embarrassed. But now while there is no barrier it is an auspicious period for extensive preaching of the Gospel to the deaf. So Christian mass media should not forget about this category of people. Message of the Christ"s love and salvation pertains to them as well.
