My church's website is inaccessible, also.  It's the new flash that's being 
used.  I understand that it's a fairly simple thing to solve.  They just 
need to put tags on the graphics.  Churches do not need to comply with the 
ADA so there's no way one can make them do it.

Through the sunny fields of yesterday
Echo voices of children now grown,
Their golden peals of laughter
Ring upon the ivied stone.

Hi, it's Joshua Lester. My denomination's Website's church locater
page is inaccessivle. Go to www.upci.org, click on church locater, go
to "search by zip," "search by city," and "search by pastor."
On thos links, you type in your zip code, your city, or a pastor's
last name, and it will tell you what you need to know about a church
in your community. The problem though, is that they have put captcha
on the site. There's an audio file that says, "speak the captcha," but
the file won't work. I've E-mailed them about this, but they don't
seem to be doing anything. What am I to do? Also, are there any other
Websites for denominations that have the same inaccessibility problem?
If so, I think this is a great oppritunity for the Communities of
Faith to step in and work together for accessibility on all church
Websites. Thanks for your help. Blessings, Joshua
