The End of Hunger: A Renewed Hope for Feeding the World
We at M3 were honored to have Jenny Eaton Dyer, PhD, and The 2030 Collaborative as part of the 2019 M3 Conference.
Dyer led a breakout session entitled “The End of Hunger: A Renewed Hope for Feeding the World.” In this session, she provided an introduction to the issues of global nutrition, hunger, and food security. She reviewed the amazing momentum of cutting hunger in half over the last 25 years, but the rising worry about a growing increase in hunger due to conflict and climate change. Dyer discussed the First 1,000 Days, and why this window of time is so critical to combatting anemia, stunting, and lifelong chronic disease. Lastly, Dyer talked about how we can use what’s in our hand to intervene through advocacy.

New to M3 This Year is The Mission
M3 is pleased to welcome The Mission as an exhibitor and sponsor to our 2019 conference. The Mission exists out of an act of obedience and a step of faith. In 1986, Steve and Cathy Horner said YES when God asked them to go to Mexico and take care of abused and abandoned children. They moved from the San Francisco Bay area to Tijuana to build an orphanage. An orphanage that would redefine family and love for abandoned children. In 1987 the Mission was founded out of a desire to change a nation one child at a time. Over the next 21 years, the Horners built and founded an orphanage, as well as a family care program, elementary schools, a Bible college, and 19 churches, all in their beloved country of Mexico. The Mission has projects in Mexico, Nicaragua, and Romania.
In 2008, the ministry’s baton was passed to Steve and Cathy’s oldest son Jimmy and his wife Genea, with the intention that they would take what was begun and run with it even further. Jimmy and Genea Horner have been leading the ministry ever since. The two had been serving the Mission for their entire adult lives. What a testimony of faithfulness and legacy.
If you have a desire to make a difference in orphan care make sure you visit their booth at the conference to learn more about The Mission.
