[Faith-talk] accessible church service material

[Jenny Keller]

Hi Ashley,

I'm coming in kind of late, but when I attended a church that used the screens, I simply asked them via the church office if they could send me the lyrics they already had on computers for the screens via email and sometimes, I had to braille them out by braille writer as I didn't and still don't have an embosser.

Just an idea.
