Summer video!

Hello friends!

I have created a short video about my summer serving with OSI. Here is the web address for you to copy and paste in your browser:

Hopefully this will give you a clear picture of the ministry, my summer role, and a little bit of what I will continue to be doing this fall...
Please email me with any questions or comments you might have after viewing it...I would love to hear from you! Enjoy :)

Learning to love like Jesus...


Some of my fantastic co-workers and friends here at OSI


My mom came to serve for a week with me! I helped to translate for her in pharmacy which allowed us to work side by side:)



Triage area for medical and optical

With the interns at the Neza dump...we love that place so much


This lady hadn't been able to read her Bible in years. After we fitted her with glasses, she hugged me, almost crying, saying, "Thank you, now I can SEE!"
