Eyeglasses Needed Before Wednesday

This trip to the Philippines is more than an adoption trip. I'll provide more detail about our activities in a later message, but the purpose of this message is to ask for eyeglasses. A pastor who I've gotten to know in the last year--Pastor Roy Malpas--serves people living in a slum in Manila. We were planning to bring used eyeglasses for the elderly people, who are in desperate need of them, but our plan fell through.

So, we are two days away from leaving and we have no eyeglasses. We're asking for help from those living in the State College area. If you have any used eyeglasses, or want to purchase new ones for this need, we would greatly appreciate it. We are providing funding in case the lenses need to be replaced once we get there.

So, if you can participate, there are drop-offs in two locations:

1 ) Good Steward Software, 110 Radnor Road, Suite 101, State College, PA 16801

2) Our house. Contact me if you don't know where we live.

There are boxes at both locations labelled "Eyeglasses for the Philippines." Radnor Road is accepting donations this Monday (today) and Tuesday around the clock. Our house is accepting donations on Monday and Tuesday around the clock.

Thank you for helping us out! Let me know if you have any questions.
