Ministry overview
Friend Ships operates 4 “mercy ships” that take aid all over the planet.
Often, they go to an area following a disaster. Assistance includes providing food and supplies, a medical clinic/hospital, and communication through an on-board radio station. They have a helicopter aboard one ship with heat-sensing equipment, making it possible to spot survivors in a time of disaster.
Friend Ships has the ability to provide a “city’s worth” of assistance to remote, stricken areas.
