But my 7th tenet is community so I share this with my MT online community.

Eyeglasses for Church Mission
-------------------------------------------------
Just like it says. I would like to collect your old eyeglasses. I need any pair that you aren't using. I am sending them to Armenia as part of my mission work.
It doesn't matter what strength prescription, or how old they are. An optometrist will refurbish them, and send them over for me.
I have sent to Armenia, about 75 pairs, but there is a continuing need.
I send them over in bulk, so it doesn't matter how many you send. They will be used for children and adults. Reading glasses and prescription sunglasses are welcomed.
If you do not have any, please ask your family members.
I can not reimburse you for any shipping, but I can send you a receipt for your donation. (Self Adressed Stamped Envelope requested, but not required to get your receipt.)
Please send glasses to:
Eyeglass Missions (attn: Paula)
Cedar Rock first Baptist Church.
4879 Hwy 56 E.
Castalia, NC, 27816.
Thanks! Paula
---------------------------------------------------
I myself need glasses or contacts to function in everyday life. And if I wasn't such a putz I had drawers full of old glasses, still good but out dated or no longer in style. Instead of tossing them they may go to a good use and make somebody else happy.
Hope I won't get round housed in the head for this! ;)
