Recently my reading glasses broke. If I was in the USA I would just go to the Dollar Store for a cheap replacement...but living here in the village my alternatives are limited. I was prepared for the 'functional' but unattractive solution that most missionaries would use - duct tape! Thankfully, a nicer alternative exists at the Chebaiywa Medical Clinic. Last year, due to training and assistance from churches and community groups in the USA, an eye clinic has been operating as part of the medical clinic. Last summer, people had the opportunity to have their eyes tested and glasses made right in the village! Knowing that Dr. Julius has been well trained I thought I'd see if he could help me out with a new pair of reading glasses. My examination was carefully done and happily I ended up with a new pair of glasses that have helped me continue studying and preparing for the numerous sharing opportunities I have each week. It was a GREAT visit to the eye doctor!
