Transcending Borders. Changing Lives. Globally, 5 billion people lack access to safe surgery. Children, teens, and adults suffer and die every day from treatable causes, and one child in eight will die before age 5. With the support of people like you, we deploy hospital ships to combat this overwhelming statistic. Since over 50% of the world’s population lives near a coast, our ships are the best way to reach them with state-of-the-art medical care. MISSION We follow the 2000-year-old model of Jesus, bringing hope and healing to the forgotten poor. VISION Mercy Ships uses hospital ships to transform lives and serve nations, one at a time. CORE VALUES Desiring to follow the model of Jesus, we seek to: love God.love and serve others.be people of integrity.strive for excellence in all we say and do. A Message from our Volunteer Crew: “I feel I’m part of something really good, and being a deck officer onboard is a way I can use the skills I have to help people. I don’t often have the opportunity to be of service in the way that I am on Mercy Ships.” Eric Baliantz Volunteer Second Officer APPLY NOW FOR YOUR FUTURE VOLUNTEERING ROLE: apply.mercyships.org
