I decided after the Mission Impossible seven that I simply have to be a part of the next project. Time passed, the summer was over. The information about miDim became available and I wanted to be a leader. I thought it wouldn’t be difficult – I would fill the application form, attend meetings, know more information than the participants, receive the responsibilities etc. But it turned out to be not that easy. After I filled the form, gave the money, we had our first session. And the problems started. I had an unpleasant feeling within me. I had the feeling of being left out, lack of knowledge and strength. I was getting frightened. I felt left out by all these people. Something stopped me and I began to think about quitting the project as a leader and be a participant. The time passed and I had to make a decision. I wanted to stay but something didn’t allow me to do it. But it is good that there were people who helped to overcome this barrier. If it weren’t they, everything would be different. I am grateful to God for them. I am grateful that He sent them to me, spoke and acted through them. After our every meeting I felt relieved and my fear decreased. I realized that very time the Mission for me had already started. There was a moment when I didn’t feel fear at all, I was juxt waiting…

And the miDim project started. The participants settled in the House, and the hours I spent with them and with God. I felt like I as home at the miDim house. Everything there seemed so familiar, so dear. And I know why. Because God was there, with us. For some reason or other I felt very strong spiritual support there, the kind of support that I could not find for a long time in other places and people. I saw how God blessed people and their actions. He blessed me during this time as well…I really got used to the House and people during three weeks. It seemed like it was never going to finish. But then it was time for the fourth and the last week of the project.

There were more people, more tasks. I found the answer to my question during the last week. Small groups helped me to sort out my life and get right with God. To summarize, I would like to say that the hardest thing for me was to overcome the barrier that I had at the beginning of the project. And with God’s help I made it. This brings the brightest impressions and joy.

Perhaps I thought about this question seriously only when I was given a task to write this essay. Many things happened last summer. There were funny, sad, useful, just different moments. But MI7 project left the biggest number of memories. I found new friends, I met people that I know, I spent great time, I learned something new there. Still the most important thing is that this project helped me to find the treasure, to find the treasure of my heart, I found God, came to love Him and truly believed in Him. I think that I began to see the world, various situations, everything differently after the project. MI7 impressed me greatly and when I found out that there would be another project, midim, in a year, I realized that I wanted to be a part of it. I did not know what would happen, who would take part in it, what I would have to do, but I wanted, I felt it in my heart that I would like it, that there would be many emotions and many positive things. I felt that something good, useful and bright would be happening. That this project will help people somehow, the same as the seventh mission impossible helped me a year ago. I was looking forward to the summer this year, there was time when I was thinking how the project would look like but I did not have any sensible thought in my head except for the fact that it would be something new and unpredictable. I do not know much at the moment and perhaps it is one of impellents that causes interest and anticipation in everyone, including me. This secret multiplies the desire to participate in miDim. But I cannot explain or ground my desire to be a part of miDim. Maybe there are not enough words to explain it fully and clearly. I do not know, maybe, I want to do something ‘big’, i.e. needed by people. Saying ‘big’ I mean exactly this kind of projects. I know that it is not me who is doing the project but people who have a gift to do things like that, which I do not have unfortunately. But I want to contribute at least something small, not really significant or important, still something that will help this ‘big’ to exist, develop and bring fruit. I want to see people’s smiles (there were millions of smiles last year during the project), I want their hearts to sing, to sing to the Lord. I think that is what our society needs. MiDim will help to put it all into practice, it will help to show people real faith, friendship and love to God.
