Catechesis – How Does a Deaf Person Make a Confession? – Fr Peter George Flynn OFMConv

A listener's text puts a question to Fr Peter George Flynn that canon law does answer, though not in any way most of us would guess: how does a deaf person make their confession? The answer runs through written confessions, interpreters bound by the same seal as the priest, and the fact that Irish Sign Language has one form for men and another for women. It ends in the sixteenth century with St Francis de Sales and a deaf servant named Martin, whose confessions contained no words at all.
