Thought for the day:
When we face our maker we will not be asked “How many positions did you
hold”, but rather “ How many people did you help”?
We were introduced to David and Jason from the TV program, “On
the Road” by KSTP-5 TV from
Minnesota. We were told to introduce our
self and say a few words about why we here for Global Volunteers. Michele Gran shared with us how Global
Volunteers developed.
We had breakfast and went to Sunday service at the Cahtolic
Church in Anse la Raye, led by Father Rajh. It was a nice service. Father asked for any birthdays this week, so
Margaret went to the front of the church for a birthday card and blessing with
holy water. The congregation clapped and
sang to the Global Volunteers with a special welcome song.
We returned to JJ’s Paradise resort and had an orientation,
which covered the Global Volunteers Philosophy of Service, Policies and Guidelines,
Health and Safety, Food, Money, Team Goals & Characteristics, The 12 Essential
Services, and how the project in St. Lucia developed.
The team site assignments include: Carita at Kids Step
Pre-School, Flo and Emily to tutor at the Primary School, Traci and Katie to work with
the Roving Caregivers, and Dawn and Margaret, EarthBox project.
