This non-profit records Christian books and periodicals on tape for people who are blind or disabled. It was founded by John Knox Presbyterian Church in Normandy Park, WA (10 miles south of Seattle) The first year they sent out 8 books on tape. They now send out over 15,000 books a year, all free. Their lending library now has 1,250 different titles. I have been a volunteer, am a donor and executive director. I've been involved in the ministry for 6 years. It is the best job I have ever had. The staff is all part-time and get along so well, it's like a piece of heaqven. SWe have 60 volunteers that do 75% of the work, checking in tapes, duplicating tapes (450 each month for Billy Graham's Decision Magazine) recording and mailing them. I've spent more than 50 years in broadcasting in this area and I am thrilled to be a part of this ministry
