<br>
Good Morning All,<br>
At last year’s convention Father John R. Sheehan our National Chaplain
and dedicated worker for the Blind , especially Blind Veterans gave me
<br>
Notice that he would probably be reassigned somewhere in the WORLD this
year and thus be leaving the Xavier Society for the Blind and would not
be able to <br>
Maintain his tenure as our National Chaplain. I took this news with much
regret due to the friendship I had been fortunate to have with this man
of GOD and friend <br>
Of the BLIND. He worked tirelessly on our behalf and traveled for me in
my place to help maintain our presence on a National Level. He
participated in our Veterans <br>
Celebrations, Sang at convention, raised money with our fund raisers and
was always there with his sage advice and thoughtful observations. He has
in fact been reassigned<br>
Amon , Jordan a particularly troubled area of the world and we will miss
him terribly. We pray for his success in his new assignment and
most importantly his safety as he proceeds<br>
Doing GOD’S WORK!! We thank you with all our hearts for the service you
provided us and know we are most aware that GOD put you with us for a
reason.<br>
Ever since my friends announcement I have been looking for another man of
GOD who had similar qualities and the heart to serve populations who
don't always<br>
Have the resources and physical ability to enjoy the best this life has
to offer. I have found such a man and his name is Brother Jeff Bradshaw.
I have known Jeff for about <br>
15 years and have the personal experience to know GOD does shine his
light down upon him and leads him in places that the strong of heart
could only go. He has the presence<br>
Of spirit and the will to serve. This being said I have asked him to take
over for Father John as our National Chaplain and Board Member. Brother
Jeff’s announcement is now posted on <br>
Our HOME PAGE at <a href="http://WWW.NABV.ORG">WWW.NABV.ORG</a> and his
BIO is on the Chaplains Corner Page under MEET THE NEW CHAPLAIN !<br>
If you have any prayer needs that you would like Brother Jeff to lift up
for you , you can contact him at
<a href="mailto:Jeff1983Debbie@aol.com">Jeff1983Debbie@aol.com</a> . You
can also send him your welcome aboard messages at the same address.<br>
<br>
Thank you for taking the time to read this lengthy email, but given
Father John’s service I thought it only proper and needed that you
know the facts of his service and how much he did for us.<br>
Blessings to you ALL!<br>
Dwight Sayer<br>
Your Humble President<br>
