Blog , New Mercies Podcast , Volunteers. Ellee Rollins is a nurse who was raised overseas with her missionary parents and three siblings. It was part of her upbringing to care for others in need and share the love of Jesus. So, years later, when Ellee heard about Mercy Ships from a co-worker at the hospital, something just felt right about applying to go serve as a nurse on board.
In this episode Ellee offers a glimpse into life in the wards and the special connections she made with her patients. From making friendship bracelets to throwing birthday parties, Ellee most treasures the bonds she built with patients, translators, and crew.
Just about to return to Dakar for her third field service, Ellee is looking forward to returning to some of those incredible relationships and the opportunity to make some new ones!
Mercy Ships has brought hope and healing to those who need it most for over 40 years. Using hospital ships, we are able to provide safe, free surgical care to those in need and bring medical training to healthcare workers living in the countries we serve.
