Easter

Running Club
The kids' physical activity is quite limited on board and for the last few years the school has organised a running club. Every Thursday evening the children run up and down the dock as many times as possible in about 45 minutes. Some can only do a few laps, others many. Most of the kids participate and they love it.

Albert the Baker
The Africa Mercy is a hospital ship with 6 operating rooms but it also houses over 400 people that need to eat. We are so blessed to have a bakery on our ship that bakes fresh bread, rolls, croissants and other goodies every day. Albert, is a retired baker from Germany and he comes every year for a few months to bless us with his gift of baking. Oretha is our full time baker who has learned much from Albert this year so, hopefully when he leaves she continues the great baking.
Rick and Andre are enjoying fresh croissants and cheeserolls for breakfast.
Easter week on the Africa Mercy
Every year we have a full schedule for Easter on board. This is the schedule for this week.
