A Special Day of Celebration

February 14 was a special day of celebration in the Port of Dakar, Senegal. The #GlobalMercy, designed to deliver hope and healing to nations with limited surgical capacity, arrived to live out her purpose for not one, but two nations. As Dr. Juliette Tuakli, Mercy Ships' Diplomatic Ambassador for Africa, said at the arrival ceremony: "For the first time in Mercy Ships’ history, two nations will be served from one port. Mercy Ships is grateful that Senegal, in the true spirit of Teranga, has opened its border to a select group of patients from The Gambia who will be served alongside patients from Senegal." #Senegal #TheGambia #MercyShips
