15. Faith

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

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.
