WATCH OUR TRAINING VIDEO

Executive Director Helene Pierson has just completed a video version of the training our staff members get on staying safe - and keeping others safe - during the Covid-19 crisis. We're sharing it in case it can help you as well.

If you don't have an hour to invest right now, we'd suggest the section on do's and don't's (beginning at minute #32), and the one on special rules for our mission (starting at minute #44).

Please stay safe and stay healthy!

RUSHING WiFi TO ISOLATED SEAFARERS

Just after 10 am on Monday the bulk carrier NORD MISSOURI, came alongside at Riverside Terminal, and the crew asked someone on the docks to call us immediately. We committed to be there within two hours, thinking they would be ecstatic since we are currently the only seafarer center operating on the East Coast. Instead the response was, "Can you get here sooner? We haven't talked to our families in over a month!"

Imagine being completely out of touch with loved ones during this terrible time! SCI Chaplain Bill Rex got to the ship as fast as possible and delivered WiFi hot spots. Our prayers are with all seafarers who continue to bring us goods and produce from all over the globe. ... See MoreSee Less
