It is a love that she has always wanted to share; and it is through her work with the Alaskan Seaman’s Mission that she has combined that love with the spiritual welfare of seafarers.For those that were in need, Jeannette brought the light of the Holy Spirit to those many crew members who sought Christ’s love and protection for both them and their families.Those of us that have witnessed it will never forget the belief, goodness and kindness you have given to our crews over many years through your Christian ministry.This collection of stories and anecdotes reflects everything that was good and Christian about Jeannette’s work and the inspirational love of Christ which she brought to so many that sailed the seven seas.Commodore Bernard WarnerCunard Line (retired)If you are reading this note before you read this book, you missed 45 incredible years of Jeannette’s life at the Seaman’s Mission.Jeannette often asked me how I was dealing with Jesus and my answer was and still is:We mostly walk side by side and whenever I thought to be ahead of Him, He proved me wrong, that’s why bad decisions make interesting stories!Omar SilingardiDirector of Food and Beverage Services, Princess Cruises Read more
