New Friends and a New Mission At the end of July we had our annual new missioner orientation at the Bishop Molloy Retreat Center in Jamaica, New York. We collaborated with two other organizations that share a similar mission: the Mercy Volunteer Corps and the Holy Childhood Volunteers. Returned VMM missioners were an important part of the process. Julie Lupien from Mission to Mission was the lead presenter and Jennifer Wilder was one of our panelists. Immediately afterwards our new VMM missioners, Claire Moll and Julie Laven, flew to El Salvador to join the rest of their SHARE team. Follow their experiences through their blogs:
