THE HOLY CROSS BLIND OUTREACH NEWSLETTER

::::::
A NEW LOOK
        The Holy Cross Blind Outreach Newsletter is taking on a new look. This 
is to keep much of the articles you have seen before and add more community 
news.
        First, you will notice the GREETINGS section is cut back substantially 
in size, making room for newer material.
        A line colons now separates each section. This will make for easier 
navigation, especially with regard to the e-edition.
        DID YOU KNOW? Will cover anything from factoids to blindness related 
tips for day to day life.
        When possible the RESOURCES OF THE MONTH will include an item that is 
low-tech, not requiring a computer and high-tech item which will be available 
online or by download.
        NOTICES AND REMINDERS will no longer contain church  only information 
for Holy Cross. That will in a new weekly church and community publication on 
the weekends.
        THE COMMUNITY CALENDAR will, when possible, begin including the 
addresses of various events along with phone numbers and contact info.
::::::
GREETINGS
Patriotism And Remembrance

        So, ¡§Where were you when the world stopped turning?¡¨ Even years 
after planes struck the World Trade Center, crashed into the Pentagon, and 
plummeted into a Pennsylvania field, we commemorated 9-11.
        The contrast could not have been more stark¡Xa blue sky over gray 
buildings, normal hustle and bustle turned into scurry and sadness. We mourned, 
and now we dance?
        Some of us flew our flags high on 9-11 while others visited memorials 
and paid tribute to fallen relatives. Even now, we all concern ourselves with 
our nation¡¦s future¡Xbeset by the terror wrought by radical Islam and a 
precarious economic downturn. We praise our soldiers and pray for our safety.
        God¡¦s Word does not prescribe a certain mood for us in our 
commemoration. Rather, it speaks to us in whatever condition we find ourselves. 
There is a time for tears as we mourn loss and a time for triumph as we 
celebrate American soldiers¡¦ courage. As surely as stones of fallen 
buildings scattered, our Lord gives us time to rebuild.
        We all, by nature, deserve nothing less than an untimely end, for our 
misuse of God¡¦s gifts has been lifelong. Nonetheless, God set a time for our 
redemption. For He sent His Son to take our sins away. Now, risen over death, 
Jesus redeems the time in which we live.
        No matter, then, our emotions or mood today, Jesus brings us the 
comfort and assurance of His grace. For He directs our days, actions, and hope 
in His peace.

::::::
TRAVELING BLIND
        Our discussion/presentation on Saturday, September 24, deals with being 
blind and traveling. Have you traveled much on your own? Or, have held back 
because of having reservations about what might happen ¡§if?¡¨ We will 
discuss ways to overcome the perceived barriers in travel and share experiences 
of being out and about.
::::::
DID YOU KNOW?
        The free monthly meal for the blind, held at Holy Cross Lutheran Church 
on the last Saturday of each month, is open to anyone? You don¡¦t even have 
to be a Christian to join us for lunch, and we aren¡¦t in the business of 
cohersing anyone to join anything.
        We¡¦d simply love having you join us from 12:00-2:00 for dinner and 
other activities on the last Saturday of the month. Yes, we do have a time of 
devotion right after lunch. Through it, we desire to encourage you and meet 
your needs.
::::::
RESOURCES OF THE MONTH
        It¡¦s never too early to start planning for 2012¡Xwith a calendar in 
braille or large print. THE Lutheran Blind Mission will send you a free,

serves. If you would like an edition sent to you individually, please, email me

around town, and a letters to the editor section. Again, you can submit these
