Usually the students remain at the mission for about eight weeks doing whatever work is asked or that which he is most adroit in doing. ln some places the missionaries need help with young people's work, and others help in construction and often in speaking engagements and personal evangelism. Some students work making records which carry the story of the Gospel in sound, while others draw animated art forms which carry the Gospel in pictures. U The students who volunteer for the Missionary Peace Corp do not receive any type of remuneration. The student body provides their traveling expenses from voluntary chapel offerings and the mission provides their room and board. During the school year following their summer's work, the Peace Corps members travel to churches in the New England area weekly to relate their experiences and personal blessings. I4l
