• Worship service by the river!
• All the great teaching in the sessions – they were so open, honest and applicable.
• Learning about the necessity of a transition that is slow, careful, honest, transparent, and relational.
• The small group feedback and discussion times that helped me process what I was learning. 
• Hanging with MK’s and staff. 

"If a younger MK asked me about ReBoot, I would say…

• “ReBoot will give him or her a chance to form deep friendships through fun and interactive activities both inside and outside of the classroom.”
• “It is an open environment where one can share, be oneself, ask questions.”
• “It’s a warm and open environment with a loving Christian community dedicated to addressing issues that might hold you back when you re-enter Canadian culture.”
• “…you will benefit and learn a lot from these people who are here to help you feel safe and comfortable around new places and your transition journey.”
• “ReBoot is the only program of its kind and I ultimately think that has been highly valuable to my transition back to Canada. I highly recommend it to other MKs transitioning back to Canada.”

"In short we would all tell you:

 “GO!”     “You need to do it.”     “Totally recommend it!”     "Just do it!”    "You will not regret it." "You'll want to come back!"

"About the people you will meet…

• “It is a good place to make friends who will want to get to know you.”
• “I developed some really great relationships [and] also felt so comfortable here!”

• “I loved meeting a lot of MKs like me, who understand what I am going through and are willing to talk, share, and listen.”
• “I enjoyed meeting all of the people and everyone being willing to share and be real with each other.  It was wonderful getting to know everyone and I felt like we connected with each other.”

• “The leaders were so open to help, listen, share, and talk.  It was very special to know that I could go to one of the leaders at any time for help."

"If you have been in Canada a few years already, we can tell you:

• "I learned a lot about myself and the struggles and joys of being an MK."
• "I got tools for dealing and coping and learning to be okay with the grief. "
• "I got to know 20 other people just like me!"
• "It was really encouraging -and challenging- to hear from other MKs... though their stories, ages and... maturity... might have been different."
• "As MK's we can connect with others on levels of incredible depth! Don't let age be a deterrent to that!"

Are you older than 18? .....  Me too!

"I went to ReBoot last summer at the ripe old age of 20. I had been in Canada for 8 years before attending ReBoot. Yes, most of the participants were younger and fresh to Canada but... my experience was still awesome!"
