There's a documentary about VVF that will be showing on PBS in the States on May 13th. It's called A Walk to Beautiful. Fire up your TIVOs and grab your hankies, folks.
In contrast to what you are seeing, I'm facing patients in the dental office that have access to all kinds of care, supplies and knowledge and yet can't even manage to drag a toothbrush across their teeth on a daily basis. We have so much here and take it for granted.
Just wanted to let you know that at 11:20am your time today (3/20), a very strong "Ali presence" popped into my head. I have no idea what was going on with you, but I felt an urgent call to pray, so you were prayed for. Noreen
I'm Ali; twenty-eight years old, and married to Phil, an electrician, also known as The Husband of Joy (HoJ for short). We live on board the world's largest non-governmental hospital ship, the M/V Africa Mercy, where we work with Mercy Ships to bring hope and healing to the forgotten poor in West Africa. The whole crew, from cook to captain, is made up of volunteers from more than thirty countries who are dedicated to bringing the love of Jesus to the world. So many people say they love their jobs enough to do them for free; we're a ship full of people who actually get to live that way.
