Volunteer TeacherSusan Waldron entered college with the aspiration of becoming a doctor. But as her university studies were coming to a close, her path changed direction. Susan decided to use her science degree to become a high school teacher. A few years later, Mercy Ships entered the picture and Susan was able to combine her passions for teaching, science, and medicine on board a hospital ship in Africa.   Susan answered “yes” to God’s question, “Are you willing to sacrifice everything to follow me?” and volunteered on board the Africa Mercy as a teacher for 3 years. In this episode Susan talks about the joys of building relationships with her students, her love of taking “field trips” to the lab and hospital on the ship, and her candid worry of coming to volunteer as a young, single woman.  Susan has as much energy in the classroom as she does in this episode and will motivate you to live a life that impacts others.  For more information about Mercy Ships, go to: mercyships.org   Follow us on Instagram: New Mercies Podcast
