Amy,  Virgie's suggestion is a good one.  Braille Bibles International
provides the New King James Bible without charge.  They also have print
and braille children's Bible stories which I have shared with my grandson,
reading the stories together.  He liked the pictures too.  You can use the
toll-free number, 800-522-4253 or e-mail them at [log in to unmask] or
even check out the website at
http://www.braillebibles.org.

When I replaced my old King James several years ago, I was somewhat
disappointed with the number of braillos I encountered and the extensive
statement at the front of the first volume of Genesisfrom BBF.  I
understand that the introductory note may have been eliminated, do not
know about other issues.

Of course, if you have a refreshable braille device, you can obtain a
variety of translations.  I have found this a real advantage, being able
to quickly move from reference to reference during Sunday school class and
following sermons as well.  No more wheelbarrels or grocery carts in order
to take my Bible to church.  Truthfully, I had a second copy which I kept
on a rolling book shelf in the Sunday school room where I taught.

Seated with Him,

Grant
