Volunteer Executive Assistant Volunteering as a media liaison and later as the executive assistant on board both of our ships, Kate Pitchford knows just about everything regarding Mercy Ships! Kate had intentions to volunteer for just one year, but five years later is still on board making sure everything runs smoothly. In this episode Kate teaches us the importance of “taking the seat” in the market, how God has an epic plan to heal the world, and how one patient screening day in Guinea is a day she’ll never forget. Kate is candid in sharing all she’s learned from living in an international community and how the more she learns, the more she realizes how little she knows.
