News and notes from AMD, DHM/UMCD, DMC - 18 November 2022

Here are the highlights of postings this week from the Association of Ministers with Disabilities, Disability Ministries Committee, Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Ministries Committee, and UM Congress of the Deaf. Please note that many posts have additional comments and discussion which will not be reflected in these links.

Giving Tuesday is November 29, just after Thanksgiving. Please consider what you're thankful for, and take time to imagine a better world, and what you are able to give to either DHM or DMC (or both). These committees are making a difference--grants not only provide hardware such as ramps and listening systems, but aid innovative programs of outreach and justice.
