(David Emslie photo) Debbie returns and tells about trip to Finland By Debbie Siertsema It is difficult to believe that it was one year ago that Siru was on a plane back to Finland. It is even more difficult to believe that I visited her for a month. The time pass- ed very quickly. The plane ride to Finland was my first time in a plane and it was nicer than I had expected. I met a few people on the plane who I could talk to thug making the time pass more quickly. Seven hours in one seat is a fairly long time. The landing in Helsinki was smooth but the weather. wasn't clear enough to see anything from the plane. I was et by Siru at the ,airport .and we crit -to heP ntgVanfl Qthe "ih6rili "it Helsinki. There are a few differences bet- ween Finnish and Canadian apartments. The first great difference between Finland and Canada is darkness in the springtime. Finland is the darkest between 2:30 and 3 a.m. It reminded me of dusk in Canada that Is how dark it was. - The food in Finland is different too. The bread is heavier and drier. Fruits, especial- ly the cloudberry, are favorites among the Finns. After returning to Siru's hometown I met her family and settled in for the next month. The next week I went to school with Siru. School was from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. every day and lunch was provided for everyone by the school. The daily bike ride to and from school was an experience for me. During the rest of the month events were scattered throughout to keep us busy The class; which Siru would have been in had she not come to Canada, graduated. The graduation ceremony was at 10 a.m. The rest of the day was spent visiting friends at their homes. The graduates met later in the evening to celebrate. It is a "tradition" for the graduates to meet on the morning after the graduation at the fountain, in the centre of town and jump in. We were able to watch this and it was quite .the sight to see everyone jumping in with their suits, dresses and shoes on. Other ceremonies that I saw included, a corgfil nrri}p,ati�pp a r a, ne daynd aae �r}}'i, s omet'.I dl�3�&b#Jrdaehn a9 a a hs t Ml - ed in Finland. The Midsummer was on my last weekend in Finland and I am very glad that I was able to stay and see it. The town had a huge bonfire on midsummer's eve ' which we sat out on the lake and watched. The next day we had a family dinner where Siru's family all dressed in their national costume. It was very interesting to see the different types of costumes. I was able to take a boat trip to Sweden, which Siru and I will remember for a very long time. This trip is full of many memories .and I can hardly wait until Sint returns here next year. I would like to take this time to thank the Bayfield Lions Club for helping me be able to take this .trip. Siru also asked me to say "Hello" to everyone for her and this is a perfect oppor- tunity to do so. This trip is one that I would take again anytime.

The plan presented at the last con- gregational meeting was voted down. ,So...back to the drawing board. The Daily Vacation Bible School will be held in the near future. Assisting us in this annual project is a SWIM team (Summer Workshop In Missions). These are groups or teams of young people who, through their league, volunteer their services for a period of about six weeks in various mission endeavours. Locally, the group is also in- volved with work in the Vanastra Christian Church. They are billeted by the local con- gregation for this period. At the time of writing, none of the con- gregation is in the hospital except several new mothers and their newborns. We re- joice with Mr. "avel Mrs. Barnard Westerveld, who celebrated their 40th wed- ding anniversary, and a number of seniors among us who celebrated birthdays.
