Goodbye Tenerife; Sunset at sea
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.

On the high seas
We left the Canary Islands yesterday afternoon and we are on the open sea traveling south to our destination at Pointe Noire, Congo. We should arrive in about 2 weeks. This is a time of rest, relaxation, reading, getting to know the new crew that arrived in the last few weeks, working our "summer" job, and meeting to plan for the Congo field service. It is a special time for when we get to Pointe Noire we will be extremely busy getting everything in place to start the screening process that determines who will be able to have surgery. This year Mercy Ships celebrates 35 years of offering hope and healing to the world's forgotten poor. Watch the 60 Minutes program on August 4th to learn more about what this amazing organization does.
