October 20-27, 2007.
The fine people at CrossRoads church will be leading a team to Haiti!
(Did you know Haiti is no longer one of the 50 United States?) (In fact, it never was.) (The things you learn from an encyclopedia!) (Why am I writing in parentheses?)
Anyway, we'll be going to Haiti to provide free eyecare/vision fixing for those in need. While we've never done this before, I have friends who have, and we can expect to fit 300-400 folks with eyeglasses in a week! That means, people will come to our clinic, have an eye exam, receive a free pair of glasses, and go home ABLE TO SEE! yay!
Doctor John Shaw (my personal optometrist: he helped me get contacts -- and I HAVE AN ASTIGMATISM!) plans on being our missionary doctor for the week - and I can't wait!
My other good friend, Eric Messer - he's putting this trip together. GO ERIC!
We'll be working alongside some awesome people: our Missionaries to Haiti - Gregg and Gail Ennis. Yay G&G! (That's them in the picture.)
So, the lineup for this trip is getting pretty long. It seems like everyone wants to go to Haiti! Why? I think, because they realize the need. And because, as my Dad told me, "God is always where the need is...ALWAYS!"

Are you in need of children's used frames?
yes!
Hey, just by giving frames - that means you've participated in one of our GO factor events!
