Finding Hope

Jess Mepstead - Mercy Ships: From Dietician to Doctor


Listen Later

On episode 55 of Finding Hope, I’m so excited to have a bit of a full circle moment. My very first episode was with a woman called Merryl Mackenzie – who shared of her many years experience working on Mercy Ships – providing life-saving surgeries to those in need in Africa. Today, I interviewed Jess Mepstead who has served as a dietician on Mercy Ships, and is now studying to become a doctor – with the hope of one day returning to the ship as a surgeon. But her journey has not been without roadblocks.
