Shelley,

You might find the article (UCC/Braille hymnal helps
church members) at this site interesting--or have you
already read it? 
http://www.wfn.org/1997/07/msg00150.html

If your church takes up a collection on Sundays, maybe
there could be a couple of specific ones in orcder for
the church to get the hymnal. According to one
paragraph in this article, which I'll put below, the
UCC Synod recommended that churches makes such things
available.:

 "Why spend such a sum of money for one hymnal?
    For one thing, it's consistent with a tone set by
the
UCC's General Synod, a biennial national meeting of
delegates. 
In 1981, the Synod went on record as urging local
churches "to
use such aids as braille materials; talking books;
large-print
hymnals, Bibles, Orders of Worship; signing; and image
and
color."
