The Deaf Program at SIBI is a three-year ministry training program that equips students to share the Gospel with the Deaf and to work with Deaf Christians. It is open to both Deaf and hearing students. This comprehensive program is designed to break down the barriers between the Deaf and the hearing world.
The Deaf Program includes much of the same biblical instruction as the two-year Biblical Studies program at SIBI but adds courses specifically tailored to Deaf ministry. All courses are taught by experienced Bible instructors.
Christian Interpreter Training is available as additional training for hearing graduates who want to minister to the Deaf.

SUPPORT US
Every year the same problem prevents many potential Gospel preachers and ministers from enrolling. Desire and passion are not the problem. The primary obstacle is the financial commitment it takes to move to Lubbock, many times with an entire family. Most potential students do not have connections across the brotherhood to raise support, and their local congregations can’t completely support an individual or a family.
We are now teaching courses completely online and currently have students studying with us from seven different countries on three continents. Several of our SIBI Deaf Alumni have offered assistance to these students, providing them with the tools they need in order to study with us online. As the number of students increases, the need for student aid also increases.
They need OUR help!
We are asking you to contribute whatever amount you can to support the Deaf Ministry Program.
Imagine what God can do in the Deaf Ministry Program when you help these men and women willing to serve God and to be trained by the Biblically sound, in-depth study that has been the hallmark of Sunset International Bible Institute for more than 60 years.
You can contribute online with a one-time or monthly donation by clicking the DONATE button or by calling 1-800-658-9553 for information about other payment options.
