I found this copy of my grandfather's first book, I Went to Tristan, in very good condition last month. It even had its original dust jacket from 1941, which is very special and quite rare. (I've only ever seen one other that still had its dust jacket.) I want to be able to hand copies of his first book to my children one day, and now we have enough copies for this purpose! :)
Throughout West Africa, Europe, South Africa, the USA, and the South Atlantic Ocean. Our adventure continues as we seek God's will for our life after Mercy Ships.
What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?

He is no fool who gives
what he cannot keep to gain
that which he cannot lose.

ABOUT ME

- I am a 40-year-old South African whose journey with Mercy Ships began in 2007 when I joined the M/V "Africa Mercy" in Liberia. I met my wife Candace in Sierra Leone in 2011 and together we served with Mercy Ships until December 2012. We worked with Mercy Vision in South Africa during 2013, and are now settled with our three kiddos in the USA.
