DOOR International is a global Christian ministry dedicated to reaching Deaf communities with the Gospel through sign language Bible translation and Deaf-led church planting. Founded in 1983, the organization partners with indigenous Deaf leaders to ensure that Scripture is accessible in the heart languages of Deaf people worldwide. With over 70 million Deaf individuals across more than 400 sign languages—and less than 2% knowing and following Jesus—DOOR International addresses this gap by equipping Deaf believers to evangelize, disciple, and plant sustainable fellowships within their own cultures. As a member of the Wycliffe Global Alliance and the Forum of Bible Agencies International, DOOR plays a vital role in combating “Gospel poverty” among the Deaf, empowering communities to flourish spiritually while preserving their unique linguistic and cultural identity.
