Hawa

The crew on the Anastasis may not be able to leave the ship due to some unrest in Monrovia, but that doesn't keep them from doing what they are there to do. The surgeries began last week and here is a before and after photo of seven year old Hawa.

Note to the squeamish: the
before photo is difficult to look at, but unfortunately it was a reality to this beautiful 7 year old girl.

Scott is back on the ship as a photographer. If you want to read Scott's up to date stories about what is going on with Mercy Ship's go here.

Hi Jenni, thanks for your comment on my blog, but your email address didn't come through...so I couldn't reply directly.

To answer your question,I'm hoping to be sent by Equip International to work with ACFI (African Christians Fellowship International) an indigenous church that runs orphanages and schools for the poorest of the poor in Liberia. My church has supported that work for over 12 years, so I'm anxious to be on the ground working alongside this group and the work they are doing for their own people. Equip will handle the "sending" part, but once on the ground Equip will turn me over to ACFI.

Hello- great to see Hawa's pictures on your site. I saw her in Freetown at the clinic and was so thankful to be able to refer her to the ship! It's always amazing to see the change!
God bless you in your work.
