A Beautiful Mind
Posted: 18th February 2010 by Gordon Temple
Christian charity Mind & Soul is running a conference with the title A Beautiful Mind: Emotional Health and Christian Theology on 26th March 2010 at Holy Trinity Brompton. This conference offers to help you understand where emotional stress comes from, see how it relates to a person's faith and learn how to offer practical help.

- producing Christian literature in formats they can read;
- promoting Christian fellowship with and among them;
- encouraging churches to fully include them and enabling their participation;
- supporting them in any area of Christian spirituality
The aim of TORCH TRUST is to overcome sight loss as a barrier to finding personal faith in Christ and living a fulfilled Christian life.
Torch Fellowship Groups meet at 125 locations across the UK. Search our downloadable directory [link] to find the one nearest to you. TORCH TRUST also runs holidays, house parties and retreats especially for blind and partially sighted people, mostly based at their own Torch Holiday and Retreat Centre in Sussex.
TORCH TRUST produces Christian literature in audio, Braille, giant print and electronic formats. The range includes Bibles, Bible portions, daily Bible readings, scripture text calendars, hymn and song books, tactile greetings cards and magazines. The Torch Library (see the Literature page) is a free postal service giving blind and partially sighted readers access to over 3,500 Christian titles including many biographies and other bestsellers in a mix of audio cassette, DAISY disc, Braille and giant print.
Much of what TORCH TRUST does is offered free of charge to blind and partially sighted people who meet generally accepted criteria. Where a charge is made, it is simply to defray costs. We believe blind or partially sighted people should not be expected to pay substantially more for reading materials than sighted people do — even though costs of producing accessible formats are often much higher than standard print costs.
