Scotland to Madagascar
Twenty-six years ago, Sherry sailed into Madagascar having moved from the Borders region of Scotland a few months earlier to join a missions training program. Sailing into Tamatave from Durban, South Africa, with a 400-strong crew ready to embark on a 6-month medical outreach, it was her first exposure to cross-cultural ministry in a developing nation. Initial unease gave way to an appreciation for the people she met there, and the opportunities to understand and serve a very different culture.
