Sierra Leonian, David Kpakiwa, had a tough childhood that would have discouraged most. But David was instead empowered by his circumstances and given a heart of compassion to help others in need.
When he heard about Mercy Ships and the work we do, David knew he had to be a part of this mission. From local worker to deck administrator, housekeeper to advance team member — David is now back in his home country of Sierra Leone, preparing the way for
the arrival of the Global Mercy.
In this episode, David shares his incredible journey that led him to Mercy Ships, including civil wars, becoming a refugee, and God’s great provision. David’s
faith and trust in God will encourage you and his empathetic heart will bless yours.
