Ships of Mercy: The Remarkable Fleet Bringing Hope to the World's Poorest People
Don Stephens, Nancy Predaina, Lynda Rutledge StephensonB Format 2018-04-05
The improbable but thrilling story of how a Colorado farm boy built a navy, how a decrepit ocean liner learned to be a hospital, and how a boat load of volunteers are literally changing the face of the world ... one face at a time.
Ships of Mercy tells the riveting true story of Mercy Ships, the astonishing fleet of hospital ships that sail the globe, bringing dramatic change to the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in the most impoverished and disease-stricken corners of the world.
Ships of Mercy is a page-turner of the highest quality, an inspiring testimony both to the essence of the human spirit and God's amazing providence.
It tells the story of a teenager's extraordinary vision brought to reality in the form of a multi-million dollar life-saving mission. It also tells the story of a family of people from diverse backgrounds who have sacrificed their comfort and security in order to perform remarkable acts of grace and kindness.
Mercy Ships is an international charity which currently operates three hospital vessels: the Anastasis, the Caribbean Mercy and the Island Mercy. These astonishing ships take relief and development to the port cities of some of the world's poorest countries. Every year, Mercy Ships' doctors perform more than a thousand complex operations that transform people's lives - including complicated maxilofacial surgery - in areas where up to half the population has no access to basic health care.
