When I grow up. . . . . .

I have found what I want to do when I grow up!  My heart now belongs to Africa and I could spend the rest of my life aboard the Africa Mercy.  I am so blessed by the work I do here.  I am still planning to return home in June, 2014 but I am considering options of returning to the ship for 6 months at a time every year.  My life has been forever changed. Today I carried a 5 year old little girl into the ship and down to the hospital deck followed by her mom carrying her infant brother.  She will have surgery tomorrow to remove a very large tumor on the side of her face. Please pray for Oumou, that her surgery will be a success.

10 of us took a road trip to Kindia last weekend, a city 4 hours away from Conakry.  There were 11 of us in a taxi on the way there!  We had a wonderful time and walked to 2 waterfalls.
