More than 300 homeless persons had one or all of these services: Eye screening,
exams and glasses if needed, health assessment, hair cut, gloves and hats, and a hot
meal.
This was a partnership that developed when Jeff Fuson, pastor of Phos Hilaron Church
came to EDGE and ask us to help them do a service project. Phos Hilaron is a new
church that has 'service' worship — a Sunday time of community service. Jefferson
Street Baptist Center, a ministry to Homeless, is a long time partner with EDGE. The
EDGE Vision Ministry lead by Dee Dee Hurt and Susan Kidwell organized a Free Health/
Vision Clinic at Jeff St Baptist Center that would involve Phos Hilaron Church, the
EDGE Vision Team, and our new partnership with Bellarmine University School of
Nursing.
