Priscilla (Allado) Newton

• Name:  Priscilla Newton
• Where you live / home congregation:  Frankfort, MI; Trinity Lutheran, Arcadia, MI
• Professional experience, specifically related to your role with LBW:  retired teacher, missionary, pastor’s wife, seminary professor wife and District President wife
• How long you have been on the board:  5 years
• Why you decide to join the board and/or what drew you to LBW:  When asked, I prayed about what I could offer.  My mother was totally blind so I was raised by an extremely competent and professionally acclaimed woman.  Blindness was not what defined her so I saw blindness as “opportunity” not regret.  I see LBW as offering that same message.
• What you like most about LBW”:  The fact that giving the Word of God for FREE to people who are not only underserved but often “unseen” by the world is a huge drawing card.
