Psalm 34:1-4 reads, "I will bless the Lord at all times;
his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
My soul makes its boast in the Lord; let the humble hear and be glad.
Oh, magnify the Lord with me and let us exalt his name together."
2016 was a great year! Pat and I know it was because of the Lord. We also recognize that it was because of your serving, giving and praying with us. Lives were touched and changed because people experienced His Love and Grace!

In Sri Lanka: Twelve Eye Vision Clinics were held when Pat, Cyndy and I were there in February. A total of 768 Eye Exams were performed and we were able to give away 657 pairs of glasses. After we left, two additional Eye Clinics were held by the Sri Lankan team. 342 people were examined and 310 glasses issued. There were also many healings, and salvations at every clinic.
In Ghana: Assistance was given for church construction, Pastoral support and a Christmas Party with food and gifts for an Orphanage.
