The ship safely arrived in the Port of Lome in the nation of Togo on February 10th. My dear friend Clementine Tengue who is from both Togo and Ghana had the privilege to carry the Togolese flag down the gangway. Due to still being in the hospital when the ship sailed, I travelled instead by air from Europe and overland from Ghana. I arrived three days after the ship arrived. I spent a lot of time here in Togo last year with assessment and advance. Togo was the first nation in Africa that Mercy Ships visited – back in 1990.
