Breaking Barriers - Issue 88, Winter 2011

 

 

Winter Theme: About ten percent of the population in North America lives with visual impairments. The articles in this issue help readers understand what it is like to live with a visual impairment and how the church can become more inclusive toward people living with impaired vision or blindness.

Spring Theme: Our next issue will focus on technology. If you or your congregation have used some form of technology to make your church more accessible, we would love to hear about it. Please send us your story by March 15, 2011.
