Mercy Volunteer Corps

When I decided to serve internationally, I was looking for some specific things. Healthcare, Catholic, Community Living, and English Speaking. MVC internation provided all of those and so much more. I work as a volunteer nurse in the highest level of care in one of the best hospitals in Guyana. I get to be at the bedside changing lives and helping people. I get to teach at the nursing school to provide a lasting change in Guyana. We are supported spiritually and emotionally by the Catholic Community here and the Sisters of Mercy. I live with three other volunteers and have been blessed by a supportive and friendly bunch. Guyana has a rich mix cultures: African, East Indian, Caribbean, Portugese, British, Amerindian.
