Welcome
to Harvest Deaf Ministries!
Harvest
Deaf Ministries was established by the vision of Dr. Reginald (Reggie)
Rempel. As International Deaf Representative of BIMI (Baptist
International Missions Incorporated) for many years, Dr. Rempel had a
vision for a school that would train the Deaf to serve in the Christian
ministry. "Training the deaf to reach the deaf for Christ". His vision
became a reality in the spring of 1994 with the purchase of
approximately 14 acres of land in the North Georgia area and BIMI Deaf
Bible Institute was begun. During the third year, the BIMI Deaf Bible
Institute was changed to the BIMI Deaf Bible College. Since then, there
has been a complete renovation of the buildings on the property
including a dining hall, boy’s dormitory and the old barn which houses
the library, office and the Lee Roberson Chapel. After that, the
ministry continued to grow and now includes Harvest Christian Academy
for the Deaf (1998) and Harvest Baptist Church of the Deaf (2000). In
the winter of 2001, the BIMI Deaf Bible College, at the encouragement
of both the BIMI headquarters and supporting pastors, changed its name
to Harvest Deaf Bible College. All three are now under the umbrella of
Harvest Deaf Ministries, Inc. Future plans include an
additional dormitory building and a gym as well as the construction of
a new school building. Please pray for the
continued growth and outreach of this great work for the glory of our
Lord, Jesus Christ.
