On October 9-13, 2013,
International Institute of Deaf Services, Inc. will host
IMPARTATION 2013 – “Multiplying with PASSION, PURPOSE & PRIDE” Conference. Men and women from all over the United States and other countries will gather together in Birmingham, Alabama for this event.
IMPARTATION is more than just a conference; it’s an Encounter with God. Most conferences focus on skills and not on ministering to an individual’s spiritual life. Usually only 5-10 minutes are given to prayer over a four-day period. That is very little time in light of the fact that interpreters must communicate that which deals with the soul. Interpreters are not trained in the Word of God, yet have the responsibility to interpret His precious Word.
Spiritual training for the deaf community is rarely heard of. The deaf community rarely has the opportunity to receive the Gospel first hand in their language. The door for reaching and training deaf individuals and those who work with them is now open.
IIDS, a 501C3 organization, is calling for men and women of God who would invest into the lives of these precious people who hunger for the Word of God and training.
Your business or organization is invited to help sponsor the upcoming IMPARTATION 2013 Conference. IIDS expects to attract more than 200 participants’ deaf and hearing. Individuals from all over come to participate in quality in-service training with nationally recognized leaders in the field of sign language interpretation. Deaf individuals come to secure effective leadership and empowerment training as well as classes on Spiritual Development. Interpreters are facing increasing certification and educational requirements, including requirements for continued education. IIDS is one of few national conferences providing this type of training for religious interpreters. It is an opportunity for interpreters to learn from a broad cross-section of the leading trainers in the field. We invite you to be part of this exciting event.
As a sponsor of IMPARTATION 2013, you will be invited to join us at the annual banquet on Saturday evening, October 13, 2013, and receive acknowledgement in the conference program book and visual ad presentation.
