Part of the vision of Sight Ministries International is, "Bringing sight to those who would otherwise be functionally blind the rest of their lives is a life changing event for not only those who receive the vision care, but also for those of us who are able to give it. This "gift of sight" opens hearts so that the good news of Jesus Christ can be shared, in appropriate ways, by our teams as well as the people we serve with."
