Remy was a teacher in her home country, The Netherlands, for 8 years when she began to feel that change was coming. Knowing about Mercy Ships, Remy didn’t realize
there were volunteer teachers on board! She eagerly applied for a 2 year
commitment and 11 years later, she’s still caring for children and families on board our
ships.
With a passion for children’s development, not only academically, but socially and emotionally, Remy began to equip children for the transition to ship life and help families navigate this big life change when coming aboard.
In this episode, Remy shares about how hard times bring community together, the importance of showing children that they are valued, and her own time of self-discovery
on board.
If you’ve ever wondered about bringing your family on board and how the transition will be for your children — you won’t want to miss this episode.
