Faith was born with a genetic anomaly. Yes, she was born deaf but that’s not the anomaly that was of primary concern to her.

14. Marcelino
Marcelino carries a calm confidence and a gentle contentment. Yet this demeanour belies an unimaginably tragic background.
13. Jiselle
I’m mesmerised by the dance of a girl up on the chapel stage. She moves beautifully and I think to myself: now that is true worship. I’ve got to get her story.
12. Jeizabille
Jeizabille is a firecracker. She just loves to talk (in sign). Never stops. She is a deaf chatterbox. If hearing people chew your ear off then Jeizabille pokes your eye out.
11. Annette
For some people, massive typhoons, metaphorically speaking, have come early and often in life and their impact has been devastating. Annette is one of those people.
10. Little Neville
About ten years ago in Ligao, a guy went into a fast food restaurant to beg. This is unexceptional, except for a couple of small things…
9. The Philippines
It’s great travelling with Neville. It’s not just his good looks, general charm and warm conversation (though these are all wonderful). It’s the wheelchair.
8. Pa-Lian
A tireless worker. An undaunted leader. A gentle soul. A father to the kids. An unsung hero. His name is Pa-lian.
7. Nuam
Nuam has the distinction – without doubt – of being the most expressive signer I have ever met. Watching her at work was sheer joy.
