Re: jobs and jaws and working at home

Hi, our church is small right now and has a lot of older members with sick relatives. No, they might take up an offering for me to get me started but wouldn't be able to support me consistently. They might be able to send some every once in a while but not consistently. I don't want to minister exclusively to the blind, though, but you're right, I'm sure places in Africa would need teachers of braille and stuff. I'm familiar with Mormon beliefs, but I'm a Pentecostal Christian and the two are pretty different. Thanks for your time and suggestions. Have a blessed day. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Karen Rose" <rosekm@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Won't your church fund you for Bible college? Alternatively, there are many 
organizations that provide missionaries to blind people in various
countries.  Could you contact some of those organizations (many are in
Africa), and see if they need anyone to teach English, or English Braille,
or something like that?  As a last resort, I don't know much about
Christianity, but I think the Mormons, Church of Latter Day Saints, allow
any Mormon to "go on mission" to various parts of the world, if you happen
to like their brand of Christianity.

Hi, I'd be a missionary right now.  I've wanted to be a missionary since I
was 13.  Funding for the Bible college I want to go to has been the main
thing that has stood in my way. I think I could work around the rest of the
obstacles that would come up. I've tried to save up money in my 11 years of 

medical transcription to help pay for this but haven't been able to due to
work seesawing and my not being able to type enough lines.  Have a blessed
day.

Hi:  I do career counseling as a part of my practice.  When working with
people with disabilities, I usually start with, "If you weren't blind,
what
would you be doing?"

Hi, this poses another jaws question.  How well does jaws work in the
online

environment that classes are set in?  Even if I did a combination of
online
and at site stuff, I'm willing to go back to school as soon as I figure
out
what I want to be when I grow up.  Any of you smart jaws users out there
got

any suggestions?  If so, please write or skype me.  Have a blessed day.

Hi jamie.

college



has an online aspect nowadays.
