Sharing.

It's hard to know what to share sometimes....sometimes it seems that there might not be much of anything to share...sometimes there's too much to share and it's hard to choose...sometimes it seems that everyone else has already shared it better than we could ever hope to share it....

Today, we'll share a few pictures....a few stories...a few names....bits and pieces from here and there.. glimpses of the things going on in this metal box floating off the coast of Africa that we call home...just a taste of the miracles God is working on this vessel called the Africa Mercy.

Grace

From a Mercy Ships crewmember: "The tumor that Grace carried for nine years is gone. Even under bandages, the change is drastic. I told her about the overwhelming support her photo had received from thousands of Mercy Ships supporters around the world – she and her mother could not believe it. As one crewmember said today, “Grace is the most popular 17-year-old we know.” And for good reason – she’s incredible. Now recovery begins, so keep those prayers coming.” 

Yes, please pray for Grace...and Emmanoel...and Ebenezer...and Theresia...and the hundreds of others who will have (and recovery from) surgery in the coming weeks.  Please pray for our surgeons and anesthetists...please pray for the OR nurses and those working in the sterilization room....please pray for nurses in the ICU and in the recovery room...please pray for the Team Leaders and Charge Nurses and Ward Nurses....please pray for all those working in administration roles....please pray for all that goes on in the hospital of the Africa Mercy.  

One other thing to share: if you've not already "liked" Mercy Ships on Facebook, you may want to do that.  There are prayer requests, updates and other interesting things posted there regularly.  

Surely there will be more to come.
