SENT TO OPEN EYES Physical and Spiritual Sight for West China's Blind

By William C. Conrad

Sent to Open Eyes is a must read for anyone having interest in China and the Chinese people. It talks of the physical and spiritual needs of the people and how they were addressed through a humanitarian project spanning twenty-five years. The book details the intricacies of planning, preparing, and performing a medical mission to an underserved people and highlights God's involvement in facilitating the success of the mission on many occasions when all seemed to be lost. It discusses the life changes, both physical and spiritual, that were accomplished through the mission and the impact of these changes on Dr. Conrad and his wife, Peggy. The book demonstrates what can be accomplished for good when purpose is coupled with passion. - K. Daniel Linstedt, PhDSent to Open Eyes is the compelling account of a missionary vision first planted in nineteenth century China that continues to bear fruit today. Journey with Dr. Bill and Peggy Conrad as they followed in the steps of Bill's maternal grandfather, missionary to the Gansu province of western China. Experience with them the call to step out in faith and establish a medical eye care mission - GANSU, INC - organized and equipped to inspire hundreds of volunteers to engage in annual missions to China for over two decades. This is the moving story of a mission that restored sight to thousands of people and also resulted in new spiritual vision for so many to see and know the God who made them and saves them through faith in Jesus Christ. As Dr. Conrad's pastor for many years, I join with many others recommending this book. It will open your eyes to what those so dedicated to Christ may do - and all for the glory of God. - Dr. Owen Bozeman, Pastor, Central Baptist Church, Warner Robins, Georgia
