The mostly volunteer staff of the CftB logged about 25,000 volunteer hours in 2007. That is equal to 1 person working 12 years! These volunteers make it possible for the CftB to serve over 1000 members and over 1000 non members annually. They deserve our appreciation and respect.
Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death -- even death on a cross! Philippians 2:5-8
This slogan reflects our firm belief that blindness and visual impairment should not hinder a person's relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Our primary objective is to see the Blind and Visually Impaired come to know Christ and grow in His knowledge and grace. We are a General Council of the Assemblies of God Home Missions ministry. Please give us the honor of serving you or someone you know. Comments and suggestions are always welcome.
Welcome to the home page of the Center for the Blind of the Assemblies of God. The CftB offers a wide variety of Christian resources for blind children and adults. With blindness and vision impairments on the increase in the United States, the need for the CftB grows daily.
New technology offers fresh opportunities for making information available to the Blind and those whose vision is diminishing. Unprecedented methods exist to offer pictures, puzzles and games to the Blind that were only available to those with good vision. The CftB is making every effort to use this technology to set a higher standard in literature for the Blind.
Please take the time to review this website and <www.blindonline.org> . Please contact the CftB for more information.
