Good Morning All,
At last year's convention Father John R. Sheehan our National 
Chaplain and dedicated worker for the Blind , especially Blind 
Veterans gave me
Notice that he would probably be reassigned somewhere in the WORLD 
this year and thus be leaving the Xavier Society for the Blind and 
would not be able to
Maintain his tenure as our National Chaplain. I took this news with 
much regret due to the friendship I had been fortunate to have with 
this man of GOD and friend
Of the BLIND. He worked tirelessly on our behalf and traveled for me 
in my place to help maintain our presence on a National Level. He 
participated in our Veterans
Celebrations, Sang at convention, raised money with our fund raisers 
and was always there with his sage advice and thoughtful 
observations. He has in fact been reassigned
Amon , Jordan a particularly troubled area of the world and we will 
miss him terribly. We pray for his success in his new assignment and 
most  importantly his safety as he proceeds
Doing GOD'S WORK!! We thank you with all our hearts for the service 
you provided us and know we are most aware that GOD put you with us 
for a reason.
Ever since my friends announcement I have been looking for another 
man of GOD who had similar qualities and the heart to serve 
populations who don't always
Have the resources and physical ability to enjoy the best this life 
has to offer. I have found such a man and his name is Brother Jeff 
Bradshaw. I have known Jeff for about
15 years and have the personal experience to know GOD does shine his 
light down upon him and leads him in places that the strong of heart 
could only go. He has the presence
Of spirit and the will to serve. This being said I have asked him to 
take over for Father John as our National Chaplain and Board Member. 
Brother Jeff's announcement is now posted on
Our HOME PAGE at <http://WWW.NABV.ORG>WWW.NABV.ORG and his BIO is on 
the Chaplains Corner Page under MEET THE NEW CHAPLAIN !
If you have any prayer needs that you would like Brother Jeff to lift 
up for you , you can contact him at 
<mailto:Jeff1983Debbie at aol.com>Jeff1983Debbie at aol.com . You can also 
send him your welcome aboard messages at the same address.

Thank you for taking the time to read this lengthy email, but given 
Father John's service  I thought it only proper and needed that you 
know the facts of his service and how much he did for us.
Blessings to you ALL!
Dwight Sayer
Your Humble President

but rather to skid in broadside,  thoroughly used up,totally worn 
out, and loudly proclaiming  --
WOW-- What a Ride!"
