Kyle Kophamel

Kyle has just completed his 2nd year of Medical school in Ireland. He grew up in South Africa but later moved to Ireland with his family. He heard about the Ship of Life from his church family last year and has spent the last month with us. This pic shows him along with his translator, Mineah, helping a patient with her painful shoulder. Kyle worked with Dr Shannon DeShazo for his first week and then continued to help in clinic for the next three.
Kyle was loved by our young Cambodian crew. He fit right in with our 20ish year old guys. Several times he went into the village with the crew and played “football” against some of the local players. Kyle is also a serious Christian with a deep and abiding faith in Jesus Christ. We expect to see Kyle many times in the future.
