MARCH NEWSLETTER Easter Greetings & Call for Board Candidat

Broken&Redeemed

In Luke 22:19 it says,

"And he took the bread and when he had given thanks,

he broke it and gave it to them saying,

'This is my body which is given for you.

Do this in remembrance of me.'"

We are grateful to be part of the body of Christ with you and for your partnership in TBL's ministry.

Your support through encouragement, gifts and prayers over the years have made all the difference.

May every blessing in Christ be yours.

Call for New Volunteers

As we get to know our volunteers, we learn that every journey to Talking Book Library is a unique story of God’s leading. Are you interested in volunteering too?

• Do you have an eye for detail and feel comfortable learning new software?

• Are you good with administration, graphic design, websites, or public relations?

• Do you have a knack for reading out loud in an appealing, calm, and steady voice?

• Can you help with our new Mandarin and Cantonese recording ministry?

Volunteers are the lifeblood of the Christian Church. For centuries, volunteers have conducted choirs, visited the sick, sat on committees, and mentored youth. The abundant generosity of volunteers brings our community alive.

Volunteers have a special place at Talking Book Library. Not one audio book would exist without a volunteer. Even more, narrators’ voices and names are remembered fondly by patrons. Equally valued but less recognized are those involved in sound editing and production.

We have a special focus on volunteers leading up to national volunteer week in April. Next month, we will highlight volunteer stories. Contact us! Or you can learn more about the traditional roles on our volunteer page.
