ANJA, FORMER VOLUNTEER, REVISITED US

Anja came from Germany as a volunteer to Mercy House in 2009. She stayed for about 4 months, then went back home to Germany to complete her university degree. She returned in 2011 to do another few months of volunteering. Subsequent to that, she got married and wanted to bring her husband out to show him Mercy House and our work, and to revisit her MH friends whom she loves so much. Everyone welcomed her, as she is much-loved by all and her loyalty and dedication live on. She and her husband took her favourite, Moise, away for a weekend of fun. The photo shows her with her husband, Tommie, with Moise on the left and our house leader on the right. This certainly was a highlight of 2016. The second photo was taken on the day Anja and Tommie arrived: we had a special Mass to welcome them with Father Rafael celebrating.
