Happy 30th Birthday, Mercy Ships!
It was the typical birthday party yesterday to celebrate Mercy Ship’s 30 years of ministry. Games, rely races, BBQ and picnic, and worship with a presentation commemorating the past 30 years. Ok, maybe it’s not a typical birthday party when you have 400 people running around the ship and dock scurrying to get to the finish line first. But we did have chocolate cake at the end of the day.Our patients even joined in the festivities by playing “pin the tail on the donkey” Everyone had fun.
It was encouraging and inspiring to hear of God’s faithfulness. How He took Mercy Ships from being a very small ship with 85 crew and doing mainly eye surgeries and simple procedures to being this huge ship of 400 crew and doing around 7,000 surgeries per year, very complicated and life changing surgeries I might add. Amazing. God is so good and faithful. I’m in awe.
