When James Harrison left the comforts of his home to join relief efforts in East Africa, his eyes were opened. James’ heart was moved by the dedication of local pastors to take the Good News of the Gospel to their own people — sometimes traveling days on foot to reach those in need.

Though James left us too soon, his legacy lives on through Open Eyes’ Mobile Messengers™, who accelerate the message of Jesus Christ to the underserved peoples of the world. Over the last decade, Open Eyes has connected donors to the world’s most difficult places, where Open Eyes Mobile Messengers™ are delivering the Gospel to unreached and underserved people every day.

• An undeniable healing miracle that he witnessed in his family
• The testimony of James Harrison and how his compassion has been turned into action through Open Eyes Ministry
• The impact of the ministry around the world (baptisms, churches in network, mobile messengers)
• How this work has personally been full circle in his life
