Chris.
The Ministry of the Church to the blind and other handicapped or helpless people is really a compassionate ministry rather than a specialized one. There is very little natural or financial return for such ministry, that is why it is not so popular. The spiritual 'returns' from the Lord for such a outreach and care however will be rewards that are immeasurable.
