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.

And the blind shall see......


I could sit here and type all day trying to find the words to best describe what Mercy Ships does and the way a free surgery can change someones life. How it can restore hope, renew relationships and community acceptance. I could try to communicate the look on a patients face when they see for the first time or the joy that healing power can ring. But they say a picture is worth a thousand words so take a look at this video of Sierra Leonean cataract patient, Christina James and you can see for yourself!
