Caring for Seafarers is What do we do !
The Dampier Seafarers Centre over the years the Mission has sought to help seafarers in all kinds of practical ways. Seafarers are away from their families for long periods and may face loneliness and ill-health or injury. The welcome from the MTS Chaplains and volunteers may be the only onshore hospitality they receive.
We try and connect visiting seafarers with there loved ones via the internet and phone, sometimes they just want to chat about anything strike up a conversation with someone who isn’t a crew member, someone who can just listen, its the most satisfying time to have a person talk to you and just to listen then to see a smile return to someone’s face and know that you helped put it there.
