Lutheran Braille Workers is honored to be one of only 50 organizations nationwide selected to receive a grant through the Lilly Endowment’s National Storytelling Initiative on Christian Faith and Life.
Our five-year project, Songs of Faith, Stories of Light, shares the stories of Christians who are blind or visually impaired through original music, video, and podcasts. By pairing personal faith stories with newly written songs, this initiative helps audiences experience the hope, challenges, and joy found in lives shaped by Christ.
We are excited to share that the project is already well underway!
Every song, story, and conversation is designed to encourage, inspire, and deepen understanding while amplifying the voices of people who are blind or visually impaired.
We invite you to follow along as Songs of Faith, Stories of Light continues to grow. Check back often for new music, videos, podcasts, and stories that celebrate God’s faithfulness through the experiences of our storytellers.

Lutheran Braille Workers exists to bring the Word of God to the 338 million people throughout the world who are Blind or Visually Impaired, completely free of charge, in Braille and Specialized Large Print.
Men, women, and children find hope in the Light of Christ through the Bible and other Christian materials provided by LBW in multiple languages in every part of the globe. 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 over 80 years of ministry, Lutheran Braille Workers has produced and distributed over 15 million volumes of Christian material, in 40 languages, to people in 164 countries. LBW has never charged a recipient to receive these materials as we believe in freely sharing God’s Word!
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!
