WCG members
bring improved sight
to Guatemalans

MARSHFIELD, Missouri--Three Worldwide Church of God members left for Zacapa, Guatemala, Jan. 7 to participate in Share the Vision Mission 1999.

Ten people from three states were in the group. They joined to provide improved eyesight for Guatemalans.

The group consisted of four members of the Marshfield Christian Men's Group (Bill Mason, Bob Nevin, Richard Cupp and Bob Schall).

The Marshfield Christian Group was formed about a year ago and consists of seven men, six of whom are WCG members.

Two couples joining the group, Edwina and Gary Harper and Ellen Verrell, a licensed physician, and her husband, Dick, have traveled to Guatemala and other Third World countries on missions trips.

The Lions Club of Muncie, Indiana, donated more than 7,700 pairs of eyeglasses. The group also received support from numerous groups and individuals, including the Springfield, Missouri, WCG congregation.

Delta Airlines shipped 36 boxes of glasses and equipment free.

The group tested individuals to determine prescriptions and searched for eye glasses that matched. More than 1,700 pairs of eyeglasses were given to people of all ages.
