Welcome to my blog about my Haiti trip which took place from Nov. 28 - Dec. 5, 2008. I went on this adventure with 11 other team members from Family Harvest Church in Tinley Park, IL. Working hand-in-hand with Touch Ministries, Gary & Carolyn Walker, living in St. Marc, Haiti, we traveled to Haiti to bring the Haitians a rare opportunity of the gift of sight
.We did this by traveling with an ophthalmologist and his wife, Dr. Mike & Cleo Phillips, and 2500 pairs of glasses. Our team all worked together to conduct four eye clinics over four days. During this time we examined approx. 800 Haitians. Many could not see well at all, but by the time they left our clinic, they were given a free pair of eye glasses and left happy and smiling because we brought them vision and a chance for a future hope as we shared the gospel of Jesus Christ with them through tracts we distributed written in Creole.
