Happy Mother's Day to all moms throughout the world! Many families come on board our hospital ships, bringing moms who care for their children from infants to teenagers. In this episode of New Mercies, we get to hear from a mom who is no longer caring for young children but came to volunteer with Mercy Ships because her adult daughter invited her!Caroline Kirchner raised her three daughters to love and serve God, even taking short term mission trips to instill in their children the value of caring for the poor. One of her adult daughters has been serving with Mercy Ships for over 5 years and invited her mom and dad to come join her. In the fall of 2021, Caroline and her husband boarded the Africa Mercy to volunteer alongside their daughter Beth. Caroline volunteers in hospitality and loves getting to know all the new crew and helping them settle into their new home when they come aboard. In this episode Caroline shares her highlights of volunteering on both the Africa Mercy and the Global Mercy, the joys of serving with her daughter, and the gift to be a “ship-mom” to many crew members.
