After hearing at a conference in India that two percent of the country’s population is blind, Sanjeev Thacker couldn’t shake this people group from his mind. He had just started a YWAM centre in Chhattisgarh and had never worked with people with a disability when a local pastor asked him to help at the conference and revealed that life-changing fact.

Thacker and his team prayed. They learned there were not many Christians working to help the blind and they felt God challenging them to take on that task. The Bible occasionally uses the metaphor of our spiritual eyes being opened to show how truth can be revealed; the team in Chhattisgarh knew they were not called to open the physical eyes of the blind, but were called to share spiritual truths: their vision for vision.
