It's that time of year again

School is in session. On board the Mercy Ships, we have a school for pre-school up to grade 12. The Academy, as it is called, currently has 35 children from ages 3-16 years. This multi-national school does many activities on and off the ship. The students do fund raisers on board the ship to buy toys for the orphanages. They do school plays, bake bread for the crew, and go on field trips around the city. The Academy is a blessing for families who have children and come on board to serve. Not only do they get a "Family Cabin" which has 3 bedrooms, kitchen and living room. But they also get a good Christian education for their children.
