After nearly four decades, the first complete Bible has been available in American Sign language for those in the deaf community to own a Bible in their heart language the first time ever, but any project on recording the entire Bible in sign language has not started in China. There is still much work to be done for the deaf ministry. "It was unrealistic for me alone to teach them the Bible as more deaf people in the countryside would come to Christ. Mature co-workers would not be developed in short terms because ordinary people would be trained for three to five years. The virtual pastoral ministry came to our mind," a committed worker said.
