It's good that such services are held. We also have a church in Yekaterinburg where they try to help the visually impaired, but I have not heard a separate liturgy for the blind. I wonder how they use braille or read aloud there?

Here in Olomouc, we do not have such a special liturgy for the blind, but in the cathedral they sometimes read the Gospel aloud more slowly and clearly. I would also like to see the Braille text, how they practically do it during the service. Good idea, thanks for the article.
