Special Services Ministry

Word of Faith International Christian Center provides ministry and activities specifically designed to meet the spiritual needs of those who require special accommodations.  Our current emphases are people who are Deaf and those with diminished hearing capabilities – we lovingly call “Hearing Eyes.”   Our plans include expanding services to accommodate those who are blind or otherwise challenged.  We desire all members to participate in, and benefit from our worship services.

Our Focus is to remove barriers of accessibility in three areas:

  • Architecture
  • Communication
  • Attitudes

Sign language services provided:

  • Sunday Worship Service - 8:30 a.m. (interpreted only)
  • Sunday Worship Service - 11:00 a.m. (interpreted & real-time captioning)
  • Wednesday Worship service - 7:00 p.m. (interpreted & real-time captioning)
  • Special Events are accommodated whenever possible with two-weeks advance notice.  Call VP/TTY (248) 355-0242 or send email to hearingeyes@woficc.com  to make your request.
