Story

Euan has worked with AoS for 5 years. His late father, a fisherman,  needed 88 stitches on his arm after the winch on his fishing boat fell on him. Euan says, "Seafarers and fishermen can sometimes work in dangerous conditions, and they live semi-nomadic lives hidden from view. Yet we rely on them for our food, fuel and the goods we take for granted. AoS is able to reach out to them at their place of work and make a real difference when it matters most, offering pastoral, practical and spiritual assistance. Please support me in our quest to make the lives of seafarers and fishermen better."
