Haiti: Former Witch Doctor
-Don
Ministry Overview
The aim of "That All May See" is to improve physical sight, through eyeglasses, as a living parable of the sight that Jesus provides to our spiritual selves so that many will come to see and meet Him.
－ Purpose Statement
Together, Don and Karen travel internationally with teams, attend conferences, and visit churches, sharing their enthusiasm for serving the Lord Jesus Christ through Crossworld Canada.
Their healthcare ministry, That All May See, provides vision care services including assessment, education, and glasses so that all may see physically.
They are assembling a team of committed volunteers to work in Canada to process used prescription glasses, which they distribute along with reading, pinhole, and sunglasses as needed to people living in poverty around the world.
That All May See partners with like-minded ministries for the purpose of evangelism and discipleship that all may also see spiritually. Please pray that they will impact many with the message of hope in Jesus Christ. May all see Him.

India: "I can't wait!"
In January 2016 and 2017, we had the privilege of working in partnership with Pradyot, his wife Depali, and staff from their Kolkata-based ministry, Ahoban Radio. Together we travelled to the Sunderban Islands (2016) and to Salboni (2017) to offer vision clinics for those in need.
Using a state-of-the-art autorefractor, we assessed distance and near-vision for hundreds of people, providing glasses as needed. Each person was given a flyer explaining: (a) the Gospel, and (b) information about the gospel radio program and correspondence course available through Ahoban Radio.
"I can't wait to go home and tell everyone how much you love me!" one lady exclaimed.

What a delight to work alongside Pradyot, Dipali, and their team! We helped to show the love of Jesus Christ in practical, and sometimes life-changing, ways. We are looking forward to partnering with this team of devoted believers again in the future.

Sierra Leone: Reunion
One day, an old man came hobbling into the clinic. He had cataracts, so we couldn’t do much for him, but we were able to give him a pair of sunglasses.
When Sarah saw him, I could immediately tell that for her, he was different from the other patients. It turned out that he was her grandfather! This was the first time they had spoken with each other in 20 years! Through the eye clinic, he heard the gospel for the first time. We were able to provide him with a tract explaining John 3:16.

Sierra Leone: Engaging
Seeing this, the pastor invited the waiting people to come in. Their response was instantaneous: many streamed in. The pastor tailored his message for the audience, and invited everyone back to hear more later. The following day, several did come back, and many new people also had an opportunity to hear about Jesus! How thrilling that every day more people had an opportunity to hear God’s word!

Uganda: Transfusion of Hope
When the results came in, we had no children’s glasses in stock that were suitable for his vision needs. We kept looking. Eventually, we found a pair of small adult glasses listed in our computer system. When he put them on, the little boy’s vision in his good eye became 20/30.
Right before our eyes, his entire demeanor was transformed. His face lit up. He finally made eye contact. His posture straightened. It was as if he’d received a transfusion of hope. His mother beamed at the change, delighted at the new boy before her. He’d hated school before, but what about now? For him, the world had changed with one pair of glasses, and there was no telling what the future would hold.

Uganda: He Answers!
One door yielded an unexpected surprise. The man who answered it was wearing glasses.
“What’s your story?” the team members asked.
“I was born a Muslim,” he answered. “I lost my job. There was nothing left. I needed hope, so I prayed to Allah. Nothing.
“I heard about a free eye clinic in town. I didn’t have anything better to do, so I went. There, I received these glasses.”
A key part of our eye clinics is the ‘gospel station’, where people hear the good news about Jesus. After his time at the clinic, the man returned home.
“Jesus,” he prayed later that day, “if You’re real, if this is true, please give me a job.”
A few days later, the man received a new job.
“I pray to Jesus all the time, and He answers my prayers,” the man now says. “I believe in Jesus; my family believes in Jesus.”

The whole world is in flux with the current Covid-19 situation. However, we plan to hold clinics here when things settle down.
