WORD ON FIRE! Even hotter with Captioning! - Catholics with Hearing Loss : Captioning the Catholic Mass
Catholic DVD's in subtitles or captioning: One of the best Catholic DVD series is just that –WORD ON FIRE! Fr. Barron has an awesome Catholic DVD series called Catholicism (see http://catholicismseries.com/study-program) that is in captioned/subtitle! (both English and Spanish and I believe in other languages as well). That's make the Word on Fire even hotter! If you haven't seen it yet, it is a must if you want to understand what Catholicism is all about. If you have a hearing loss you are in for a treat –no cookie crumbs being served to you here --- it is an authentic written verbatim in subtitle/captioning straight from the priest himself Fr. Barron!
Many Catholic churches offer this series so you could watch it there as well (just remind them to put the subtitles/captions feature on and you might have to keep reminding them if you are doing this weekly because they forget.)
This is my first pick in choosing Catholic DVD's! Fr. Barron is reaching out to the growing hearing loss and deafness population by having subtitles/captioning on his DVD's. This is very helpful in breaking the sound barriers for the deaf and hard of hearing in the church.

Open up to his saving power the confines of the State, open up economic and political systems, the vast empires of culture, civilization and development. Be not afraid!" - St. John Paul II (Source: http://jp2forum.blogspot.com/2013/12/be-not-afraid-resounding-from-1531-to.html)

Captioning is the Global Language!
"YouTube is a global platform that reaches billions of people worldwide, so it’s likely part of your audience may speak a different language than you. Adding closed captions (CC) and subtitles to your videos can help your content appeal to a global audience including viewers with hearing impairments or foreign-language speakers."
"Over 60% of YouTube's audience are foreign language speakers and hearing-impaired viewers. Reach them with captions and subtitles."
