Life on Mercy Ships. The first hike we chose was probably the hardest of all we did, but also the most. There was about six of us hiking together, we all went about the same pace (which always makes thin. Gs more fun) and we all wanted a bit of a challenge. The trail started up on the north end of the island in a little village called Chamorga, which was really little more than a s. Mall bar/restaurant, a church and a few houses in a group. You start by going up a mountain and then ove. I am a 27 year ol...

Life on Mercy Ships. So if you ever happen to be in Sierra Leone and someone says - 'Want to go to the beach? Jump at the offer. Brave the hours of traffic jams, put on your suit and go.

This story happened about 2 months ago and was written by our Communications Department - just another reminder of God's perfect timing.

Life on Mercy Ships. After an uneventful drive and five hour flight, we arrived in Kenya around 5.30 in the morning. Again, getting through immigration was easy and quick and we soon found ourselves heading out of Nairobi and on our way to the Rift Vally Acadmey in Kijabe. RVA is a missionary boarding school that was established about 100 years ago - they have about 400 students of all ages. The sun also chose that moment to peek through the clouds which made it even better. Das dreistöckige Gebäude, das...

Life on Mercy Ships. Vor mehreren Wochen an einem Samstag sind wir mit ein paar Leuten zu einem See außerhalb von Cotonou gefahren und haben dort den Tag auf einem Sonnendeck verbracht. Einfach eine schöne Art zu relaxen nach einer Arbeitswoche an Bord. Die Anlage , Bab's Dock genannt, liegt wie schon erwähnt an einem See, und es ist nur per Boot zu erreichen. Man faehrt zu einer kleinen Anlegestelle, die man per Landrover. Einfach eine schoene Möglichkeit zum ausspannen. Beim Einstieg ins Boot. Auf eine...

Life on Mercy Ships. So we have started again . . . the sweating, the sore muscles, braving the heat to head out a few times a week to run :). One little one, on coming out shouted 'Our first rain in Benin! A few moments later, a boy from England turns to me and says 'This is just like England . . . it rains every day and every minute there! He seemed quite excited by this thought though - maybe it was a little taste of home to cheer him up - a big, loud rain storm. Good for a Laugh. The rest of the girl...
