Summary[edit]

The Mercy Ship MV Anastasis in Cape Town Harbour on a Good Will Mission to raise funds, awareness, and volunteers. Picture by Henry Trotter, 2005.

The flagship of the Mercy Ships fleet for nearly three decades, the Anastasis retired in June 2007. Formerly the Victoria, the 1953-built Italian cruise liner became a Mercy Ship in 1978. The 159-meter vessel housed three fully-equipped operating rooms, a 40-bed hospital ward, a dental clinic, a laboratory, an X-ray unit and three cargo holds. A volunteer crew of 350-400 from more than 30 nations served onboard. Over her 29 years of service, the Anastasis contributed more than half of Mercy Ships total output in terms of number of services, value and beneficiaries. In its long history of service, an estimated 25,000 volunteer crew members served on the Anastasis. Over 250 couples met as crew, and several weddings were held onboard, including one at sea.
