Ships that bring hope to the despairing, healing to the damaged, and health to the ill are to be rejoiced in. We offer hope, health and healing to the world’s poor. Currently our hospital ship – “Africa Mercy” – is docked at Cameroon. Her mission there for 10 months is to carry out operations that could not otherwise be afforded by the people; on board they pay nothing. The teams of nurses, doctors, surgeons and other crew members from all over the world donate their time on the world’s largest non-governmental floating hospital, for free.
Haslingfield Village Hall, Tuesday 20th February 2018 at 8.00pm. Everyone is very welcome. Members and youngsters are free, Visitors £2. Enjoy a ‘cuppa’ and a chat in the interval.
