James Charles Riggs is a 5^th grader at HPCA. His mother was born deaf and his father contracted hydrocephalus at 10 days old, which left him deaf.

James Charles and his brother, Andrew James, both are blessed with their hearing. They use sign language and lip reading to communicate with their parents. James Charles signed for the deaf members of the congregation at GSBC on Sunday, February 28^th, as the Celebration Choir sang, “Your Grace Still Amazes Me!” We are thankful God is using James Charles to “speak” to a deaf world.
