To see as God sees - join us for a relaxing weekend with a difference.

Be inspired and refreshed by relevant Bible teaching and good fellowship. Expand your horizons through interaction with missionaries. Families are very welcome. For students with an interest in mission we offer a 50% discount.
We look forward to your company, for what we trust will be a very enjoyable and profitable weekend together.
Our main speakers will be Peter and Anna. They served in the Middle East for over 22 years working with a local church, Bible teaching, team building, and producing an evangelistic magazine. Peter and Anna joined the Cornerstone Missionary Training College staff in the Netherlands in 2014 where Peter teaches Bible, Theology and Missions, and Anna works in Administration. Peter and Anna have two children, Owen and Rita.
We will have missionary stories from:
- John and Audrey served in India before joining Neighbours Worldwide to work among the unreached minorities in the UK.
- Judith and Avisai (from NI and Mexico) are our new workers preparing to serve in southeast Asia.
- Dave Birmingham and his wife Beth have been living and working in the Betel residential centre in Dublin, providing a home and a community where people struggling with addictions can find restoration, transformation and a real sense of purpose in Jesus.
- Maud Kells has served in what is now the Democratic Republic of Congo since 1968. Working as a missionary nurse and midwife Maud has also been involved in the training of Congolese nurses in five hospitals and 30 health centres. She was awarded the OBE on 21 May 2015.
