Welcome to the official website
for Blind Trust, Inc. — the Internet's home of SoulFocus Ministries
and Sioux Falls, South Dakota-based motivational speaker and singer,
Rita J. Weber.
My name is Rita Weber, and in the spring of 2001, my life took a
dramatic shift in its direction. I received a call from God to return to
school — to seminary, no less — to prepare for a ministry. Now, that in
itself is pretty remarkable for anyone who experiences it, but for me it
was miraculous. At age 49 and legally blind for more than 20 years, I
couldn’t drive a car, I couldn’t read print materials. How could this
be, I wondered. It occurred to me that I might have been mistaken about
what I had believed was a call. As I struggled to make sense of it all,
I was given inspiration for several sacred songs — new songs that had
never existed before — about every six weeks or so. I began to share
them with my friends and family and recorded them for others to hear.
Gradually, the Lord Jesus has revealed what I need to know, as I need to
know it. This faith journey has totally transformed my thinking, my
understanding of the Bible, and my relationship with Jesus Christ. He
has been teaching me about living according to His guidance, clearly
given in the Bible. And that is what I am intended to share with others
in my role as a motivational speaker and singer.
If you lack the inspiration to make changes
in your life, you want a meaningful faith journey, or you long to
discover your purpose, this site will be a great resource for you. Our
offerings of motivational workshops, conferences, retreats, and other special event
programming is available for you right here at
www.blindtrustinc.com. As a
motivational speaker and author, I also share my own personal stories in my book,
Standing At The Edge, along with a CD of original inspirational music to bring
hope and encouragement to others. All materials have been developed on a
foundation of the principles revealed in Holy Scripture, made relevant
for life in the 21st century.
Our mission here at
SoulFocus Ministries is to provide good Christ-centered programming,
where, when and how it is needed. In rural areas or urban, we are eager
to serve you. My husband, Karl, and I hope you will
contact us. We are ready to discuss what your needs are and to work
with you to make an inspirational presentation especially suited to meet them. If you
are looking for a motivational presentation in your area, be sure to
visit the Schedule
page. Or, if you are needing something on a more personal level,
please visit the Merchandise page, where
you can read a sample chapter from my book and hear audio clips from my CD. They
are intended to speak to you, wherever you
are at.
Sincerely,
Rita J. Weber |
