Day 218

196 Day Workers boarded the Africa Mercy today for a safety briefing by the Captain.  I was very excited to meet the Togolese people I will be working with for this next outreach.  Most of the 196 worked with us when the ship was docked here in 2010.  They return again next week for further orientation.

Hopefully everyone had a happy New Year.  The ship was in Ghana for the holidays, which was very nice.  Now we are docked in Lome, Togo, which is more developed that Sierra Leone, but still very poor.   The level of excitement is very high, even walking through town, with many people recognizing Mercy Ships crew members.

Happy Monday!!
