For over 30 years, early childhood centers and K-12 schools in the Florida-Georgia District
have partnered in supporting a special project we call “Hearts for Jesus.”
Simply stated, the 60+ Lutheran school ministries in Florida and Georgia designate the chapel offerings for the month of February (or whatever month you choose) to support a ministry somewhere beyond our borders.
This year, Hearts for Jesus will support the IRIS Lending Library for the Blind.
IRIS is a Lutheran RSO that sends Christian books in braille, large print, and audio to the visually impaired.
The purpose and mission of IRIS LENDING LIBRARY FOR THE BLIND, INC. (IRIS LLB) is to acquire and/or produce Christian books in specialized formats of Braille, Large Print, and Audio to provide legally Visually-Impaired and Blind individuals with Christian books in formats they are able to read. They hope that as patrons read their books, they will see Christ Jesus and view their life and the world in which they live through His eyes.
