Dr. Ted Camp and Carlene have been working with deaf people since 1966. They began printing a small newspaper, “The Silent Word,” and working with local deaf people. Later, they moved their ministry to the Bill Rice Ranch, for 20 years. In 1994 the Camps moved Silent Word back to their home town, Trenton, Georgia. The ministry has grown wonderfully. Today SWM is a world-wide ministry, reaching many deaf people each year with the Gospel.
