Goodbye from American Volunteer

Hello all-

I have had the privilege of being the American volunteer this year at The Vine Centre. As I start to pack up my bags to return home, I wanted to say farewell and thank you to all of those at The Vine that have made my experience here in N. Ireland what it has been, incredible. 

Never have I been fortunate enough to work in a place quite like The Vine Centre. The people that work at the Vine are just wonderful and their commitment to serving the community constantly inspires me. 

I will very much miss my time in Belfast, and most importantly, The Vine. I wish all of my co-workers and friends at The Vine continued success and loads of thanks for all that you have done for me this year.

Blessings and peace.

Love, 

Melissa Wheeler
