[Faith-Talk] looking for a blind deacon

[Patrick Gormley]

Joe perhaps someone like Tom Anderson president of our community of faith
division may be of help to you.  He's a Protestant minister with lots of
experience.  Aas far as support for your ministry, that can be a harder nut
to crack because by and large once churches find out that you're blind the
normal support sources dry up.  I know Jim Omvig served as a parish deacon
for a while when he was in Tuscon.  The problem you have is a lot of
churches equate blindness with lack of ability which are two completely
different characteristics.  Linda our moderator is a Baptist I believe.
