Blyth UCW speaker tells of life in Jamaica
Blyth UCW held its Christmas
meeting Thursday, Nov. 25 with 14
present.
After a potluck supper Christmas
carols were sung with Elva Brown at
the piano.
Debbie Hakkers, . president,
introduced Paul Hagerman
originally from Mount Brydges but
now with the London Conference
Missions in Jamaica.
He told how he and his wife Lori
have spent three years there. They
are now home on holidays until the
end of December but have signed up
for three more years.
Paul is with the department of
agriculture and teaches the natives
how to farm. Jamaica is only 258
km. long and farms are very small,
two to five acres.
The church own some of the
farms. He told of one two-acre farm
which was very wet. The natives dug
trenches for drainage and planted
bananas.
He showed how they grow and are
harvested.
The hurricane that hit the island
last summer flattened all the banana
trees.
There are homes for homeless
children whose parents have left the
island for work. These children are
all schooled until they are 18. All
students wear uniforms.
Christmas in Jamaica starts at 6
p.m. Christmas Eve when the grand
market opens and people do their
Christmas shopping then party all
night. Christmas morning they go to
a sunrise church service at 6 a.m.,
have lots of food all day. Their
