Preamble

We are a family of three; Andrew, Jodie and Jessica (aged 18) from Tasmania, Australia who are currently serving in Douala, Cameroon, Central Africa on the M/V Africa Mercy, the largest non-governmental hospital ship in the world, through Mercy Ships International. God has called us on a journey that has been many years in the making. For this season we call Africa home, as we seek to bring hope and healing to the poorest of the poor.

Wedding of the Century!


The ship came to a bit of a standstill on the morning of Friday 29th April, 2011. It didn't seem to matter if you were a Brit, an Aussie or an Amercian. The draw of two beautiful, rich and very famous people tying the knot in front of the world was too alluring. For those of us who were working (like me) and were not able to veiw the royal wedding of Kate Middleton and Prince William live, a special recorded version was played at the Africa Mercy's very own "Kate and Wills" party on Friday evening, put on by a Brit, of course! It was a lovely evening of cupcakes, tea and sarcastic remarks about Beatrice and Eugene's hats!

An Amercian switching sides-lol.

All things patriotic came out.

There were even cut out Kate and Wills paper dolls for the kids. Jess is getting busy here!

Paper Kate and Wills.

A lovely hot cuppa.....

The crowd watches with great anticipation...


And what a lovely ceremony it was too. A great sermon and very wise words for the newlyweds and the millions around the world who tuned in.
