We have about 12 students from France and Spain coming to the Hampton Roads area to improve their English speaking skills. Most of them are from very strong families and identify themselves as Catholics or Christians. They will need to reside with a family for 2-6 weeks. They will be under contract to respect the rules of the household while they stay. We can provide a profile of the students with pictures, hobbies, family information and e-mail addresses. These are very bright students and very well behaved. So we need volunteer families to meet them at the airport for pick up and host them for 2-6 weeks. The families should make them a part of their family during their length of stay, ie: take them to church, take them on outings and let them be involved in the lives of the family members. Ideally, families with teenagers work best. The exchange students are between the ages of 14-17 and can be either male or female. It is a wonderful outreach opportunity as we have seen salvation for Chinese students.
This is the benefit of the the host family. Any youth member of the host family will be able to compete to win an all-expense paid trip to Europe next summer to stay with a European host family. They can do this by writing an essay about their experience.
