Blind Outreach Center to open

Christ Lutheran Church will be opening a Lutheran Blind Outreach Center for the New York City area. Currently there is no Lutheran outreach to the blind in the area. We are going to change that.

Christians at Blind Outreach Centers go out of their way to reach out with a hand of help. Both sighted and blind people gather for friendship, help, and support as they show and tell Jesus' love.

The centers provide support, fellowship, and classes. People meet for fellowship meals, Bible study, skill-training classes to prepare for employment, support groups for people with various vision problems, and training to become effective Christian leaders. They teach Braille classes with the Adult Braille Christian Reader curriculum, which addresses hard questions blind people ask, such as "Where is God?" and "Is there hope?"

More details are available at the Lutheran Blind Mission web site.
