Raeanne, her husband and 3 children joined Mercy Ships in 2019. After leaving everything behind in Southern California, they boarded the Africa Mercy in Las Palmas and made their first sail down to Dakar, Senegal for their first field service.  Onboard, Raeanne volunteered in the communications department and later in chaplaincy, when not caring for her three children, Emma (15), Georgia (15) and Mack (12). With a passion for creating memorable moments, Raeanne enjoyed coordinating community events for the crew and leading Bible studies onboard. Currently working remotely from Northern California, Raeanne is a Staff Writer /Editor for U.S. Marketing, and host of New Mercies podcast.
