In 1974, my family hosted two fellows from Ghana, Africa on our farm near Seaforth. They later acted as counsellors at Camp Menesetung near Goderich. It was beautiful to see them mingle so harmoniously with all the camp children. This past summer, I, hosted a St. Lucian girl at my home in Guelph. Her project involved working at a nursery Day Care Centre on Willow Road. In all three instances, by _ summer's end, we all felt a oneness and brotherly/sisterly closeness:, We were -"people being', ;p eople"", together (not blacks with whites), and it was a , beautiful feeling: Because my family and I have gained so much from our intercultural involvement, J. just , . want to spread ,the Werd; s and 'encourage Other faMilies to do likewise. It has just broadened , our horiions immensely, making us more aware and sensitive to the problems of developing countries. CCI offers challenges - the ch: 'lenge to communicate and share across barriers of race, language and culture. Here's the two ways you can get involved in ' a cross cultural exchange with Crossroads. For the summer of 1077, CCL plans to send 65 Canadians to placements in Africa, India and the West Indies; and to bring 15 people from these three areas to placements in Canada.
