Lutheran Braille Workers is excited to announce the launch of its new website. In addition to being a place to order materials or make a gift to the ministry, the new website contains new resources for your use!
For our donors, volunteers, and supporters, we are offering complete access to our videos, logos, and other materials which can be used to share your passion for LBW with others. There are also a number of materials available for use in Sunday Schools or church schools to teach children about Braille and the ministry. Finally, our newsletters and other communications will be available for download free on the site!
Lutheran Braille Workers exists to bring the Word of God to the 253 million people throughout the world who are Blind or Visually Impaired, completely free of charge, in Braille, Specialized Large Print, and Audio-Digital formats.
Men, women, and children find hope in the Light of Christ through the Bible and other Christian materials provided by LBW in over 15 languages in every part of the globe. While they live in physical and spiritual darkness, LBW is one of the last remaining free resources available to them in which the Good News of Jesus is shared quickly and in high quality formats.
In its 77 year history, Lutheran Braille Workers has produced and distributed over 14 million volumes of Christian material, in almost 40 languages, to 164 countries. LBW has never charged a recipient to receive these materials as we believe financial ability should never prevent the Word of God from being shared with this underserved population.
There are over 3,000 active and engaged volunteers throughout the United States and Canada who passionately produce and prepare the materials distributed to people who are Blind or Visually Impaired throughout the world. These volunteers help produce almost 10,000 volumes of material every single month, in addition to the other incredible services they provide through narration, formatting, or transcribing. In fact, it is estimated this volunteer force helps LBW save over $6,000,000 in labor cost each and every year!
Volunteers range in age from 12-102, bringing multiple talents and skills to this organization. Some volunteers contribute two or three hours per month, while some volunteers spend hours every single week with this ministry. One thing they all possess and share is a passion for sharing the Gospel message with people who may not otherwise have access to the Bible.
If you possess this same passion for spreading the love of Christ, and want to be part of one of the most amazing teams of men and women on Earth, learn more about how you can volunteer today by clicking here!

A Message from our president Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, I am looking forward to Christmas this year. I’m not excited because of Christmas gifts, or watching football on television (though these are always fun moments), but because I eagerly await celebrating the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I also look…
