Wonderful Partner Weekend

As I mentioned in a previous posting, this past week, John and I were part of a team that hosted Donors/ Partners last Thursday - Sunday for a wonderful OM Ships Partner Weekend. What a joy to help host the event! There were 14 of us from the ship that hosted the partners. We picked them up from the airport, registered them, helped with all the programs, events, and tours and just enjoyed meeting and interacting with them. We had over 150 partners from the US, Canada and Netherlands. The event was held at a Christian retreat center called Willowbank, which was lovely. We would have loved if they could have all stayed on board, but currently, the ship is bursting at the seams with crew, short-term mission trips and guests (which is a good thing of course!). :) Thank God for another fantastic opportunity!
