Each Missionary who attended M2M 2011 has willingly laid their lives down for those God called them to. In the same way those who initiated, volunteered and sponsored M2M have laid down their lives for us. "No greater love is there than when we lay down our lives for our brother". Thank you.

M2M was exactly what we needed, as we needed time to debrief ourselves during this time of transition. I have felt special, and celebrated. There are few places in the world like this... where you are free to be yourself, and not be judged... the pressure was off right away... there were no expectations, it was very different from any conference, or anything we've experienced. All of it - the activities, the mindset, was great. I felt God's presence in this place, as soon as we stepped in the room. It was obvious that people were praying for us.

"Safe, sacred place" - It was wonderful being cared for by all of those who have been prepared to minister to missionaries, because of their (the volunteers) experiences. The volunteer’s lives have been very, very rich.

There is a part of psalm 23 that has been going through me the whole week while I was here..."He restores my soul". I believe that is because that is your heart... to restore.

You know when a vacation is not really a vacation, because you are always talking about what we are going to do, constant activities, well..."This has really been a retreat".

Sometimes going into the mission field is like going into the deep end of the pool - you don’t know what you're getting yourself into. Coming here was like wading into the shallow end.
