We ran an eye clinic in a nearby village last week. An American eye doctor had brought in hundreds (maybe thousands?) of donated glasses and we had the privilege of helping him hand them out in a village where we hope to do more work in the future.
Here are some of the glasses lined up waiting for new faces...
The villagers started lining up nearly 2 hours before we arrived...
The old fellas waiting for their eye exams (notice the eye chart by the door)...
This cool couple each got glasses with clip-on shades...
I suggested that we change the tagline of our organization to "bringing coolness to the needy peoples of the world" (the official one we have now has "hope" in place of "coolness")...

It is exciting to see the people being blessed by all you do but I can only imagine the blessing that you must receive. So much of what life is all about.
