construction of the dining
room and kitchen from
Monday to Saturday with
Saturday afternoon off, group
devotions at lunch time, bible
study in the evenings and
visiting other missions in
Haiti on Sundays. She has
seven religious doctrinal
statements in- which she must
believe. And while in Haiti,.
she will be busy writing to
family, friends and sup-
porters about her
progression.
There are two adult leaders
to guide the team. Karen
thinks her team will be
sleeping -right at the school,
on the construction site but at
boot camp they will sleep in
tents. She says it is very, very
hot in Haiti from what she has
heard and often goes up over
100 degrees Fahrenheit so she
plans on taking lots of lotion
with her to prevent burning.
As far as she knows, she will
be eating much the same food
as she is already accustomed
to.
She says she doesn't have
too much information on
Haiti yet. She knows it is a
small island, half of which is
Dominican Republic. It has
one of the poorest economies
in the world. This economy
includes light industry,
agriculture and tourism. The.
natives are mostly negro and
some practise the Roman
Catholic religion while. others
'follow voodooism.
Karen will be in Haiti until
August 15. She's not sure
what she'll do after she
returns home. She could
decide to go back to G.D.C.I.
for her Grade 13, or on to
college or out to work. Her
favorite areas of study are
math and English. She is also
studying Grade 1 piano at
present and has held almost
every office in the Taylor's
Corners 4-H club of which she
is a member. She is on her
13th out of 18 clubs. Through
these clubs, she has come to
enjoy embroidery, quilting
and cooking.
Other summers, Karen has
had jobs babysitting and last
summer she worked on her
brother-in-law's farm near
Auburn under the hire -a -
student program. She helped
with everything from haying
to milking cows.
Karen is not worried about
not earning any money this
summer. The experience
alone will be valuable
enough!
