My journey continues with Mercy Ships where I will volunteer for another field service on the Africa Mercy, a floating hospital ship that provides free surgical services in Africa. I will serve as the team leader for Admissions. In addition, many other services are offered such as capacity training, field service initiatives, and community outreach programs any crew can participate in by visiting prisons and orphanages called Mercy Ministries.

Tyler, Texas
The first week of training is nearing an end. We have learned each other's names and have laughed and cried together as we share our stories of how God has brought us to this place. We are from Canada, Slovakia via Spain, England, and many states of the USA from Washington, Idaho, Colorado, South Carolina, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Oklahoma, and Ohio. Tonight we will learn about our field service project, the task we will complete when we spend 2+1/2 weeks in Conakry, Guinea (on land) before we board ship. Life is oh so good!
