“I want to honor Cary Grant. He lost his voice to an illness eight years ago, but he learned sign language and just preached his first church sermon using it.”
“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Mr. Cary Grant for his remarkable testimony of faith and unwavering determination. This past Sunday, Cary preached his first sermon in American Sign Language at Deaf Michiana Mission Church in South Bend, Indiana, nearly 8 years after losing his ability to speak because of a neurological disease. After delivering his final verbal sermon on July 2, 2018, many thought his opportunity to preach had come to an end. Instead, through faith, perseverance, and learning American Sign Language, Cary found a new way to continue sharing the gospel. A regular attendee of Grace Bible Church where his son, Kyle Grant, pastors, Cary has inspired his community through his resilience and steadfast trust in the Lord. His journey reminds us that challenges can become opportunities to glorify God and serve others. Mr. Speaker, I congratulate Cary on this incredible milestone. He has been such an inspiration in his return to preaching God’s Holy Word. I wish him God’s continued blessings as he continues sharing his message.”
