| A New Year. A New Beginning. |
| |
As we enter the new year, we hope you welcome it with great joy, knowing that the lives of so many have been transformed. Because of supporters like you, we were able to accomplish amazing things in 2020, despite it being a challenging year for everyone.
Last year, with your help, our volunteers were able to perform 869 surgeries, serve 5,597 dental patients, mentor and train over 766 doctors and nurses before the Africa Mercy left Senegal.
So many lives were changed during this time, and we are looking forward to the many more lives that will be touched as we return to Senegal later this year.

| Ship to Shore Report |
| |
Along with the nurses and doctors who have worked tirelessly during the past year, we celebrate the teachers who have fought to provide quality education and learning resources against the odds.
School onboard the Africa Mercy is in full swing, thanks to our volunteer teachers. From Primary to Year 13, the children on our ships get a world-class education no matter where they're located!
If you think teaching onboard a hospital ship sounds like a nice change of pace, join us at mercyships.org/beahero |

| Global Gathering is Tonight! |
| |
This week we will start a new series of Global Gatherings for the year - and continue every second and fourth Thursday of the month. Mark your calendar!
In this week's meeting, we will be talking about our Philosophy of Service. Susan Parker led a committee to update this document, which was formally endorsed by the Board of Directors in December as a foundational part of our programmatic strategy. Susan will be sharing key points from the Philosophy of Service to familiarise us all with its content.
We will also hear from the team on the Africa Mercy and worship Jesus all around the globe, at the same time!
