    How wonderful. I was a crew member many many moons ago now. In fact your Mother (Susan) was one of my very best roomies in Garden Valley and onboard the Anastasis. Wonderful memories! 🤗❤🚢

    I'd really like to spend some time on the Africa Mercy or Global Mercy after having lived on the Anastasis for 8 years. And thank you for your VLOGs . The steel has changed a lot but the people and the love of God are the same it seems.

    Another great VLOG!! Fun to see Mr. B at the end of this one. Brings back wonderful memories of the Anastasis.

    Thanks for ALL your videos! I’ve often wondered how you get mail. Can you order things that you need? Is that what the “container” is for? :-)

      Great question, letters normally come in people's suitcases and are delivered to our "post office" but larger boxes and items are placed on the container (because otherwise you have to personally pay per pound).

    can you do online classes while onboard? I am asking because would like to volunteer summer while taking online class in the states.

      The ship has a lot better wifi than we use to so as long as you don't mind working full time and also being a student than you can you can totally do that! You just cannot work part time in order to also be a student

    When do you head to Jerusulem? When you are done in Jerusulem, will you spend time in the ship again, or go straight back to seattle?

    Hi, just curious you've a room to all by yourself? It is compulsory to share a room or you can have your own? :)

    • @CarysParker
      @CarysParker  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Great question! Most crew have cabin-mates-- there are a few single cabins reserved for specific jobs that require people getting up in the middle of the night, being on call (stuff like that) but those are few and far between

      So what is your job onboard? Im trying to look for experience from actual crew as in navigational officer s and such

    Feels like a silly question, I would love to apply and commit for a long period. How does it work with days off? I have an important family event for which I want to be home for 2 days - how would that work?

    This is not a free kindness but a hidden agenda to prey on the vulnerable. I'm not saying the folks are bad on the ship, but the ultimate goal is to convert you to their religion. A genuine kindness should be agenda free!

    Are you part of Navy personnel or a private contractor? I'm confused.

      The Africa Mercy is the largest non-governmental hospital ship in the world and fully staffed by volunteers.

      Rica Saluria no the ship is crewed by volunteers. We actually pay crew fees each month for our housing, food, facilities etc.
