Hi there, welcome friends!
My name is Krystal Franke, and I’m grateful you’ve stumbled upon my tiny home of the internet.
A year ago, my family and I decided to sell everything, leave behind those we love, and go live off the coast of West Africa on a hospital ship that provides free, safe, state of the art surgical care to the poorest of nations. In the midst of the journey, one thing has become very clear: for whom much is given, much is required.
I am a nurse, a photographer, a filmmaker, and a lover of writing/reading poetry. You’ll find many things here, but hopefully what you find thread throughout, is a love for Jesus and the constant prayer that he would make me new every moment, of every day.
some poems I’ve written
some things I’ve photographed or filmed recently
the latest on my family & our life on a hospital ship
Some housekeeping…
