What to Bring

You guys are leaving in just over a week from today! I am very excited for what God is going to do on this trip. I hope that you have been praying for God to prepare you and those that we serve. Here is a list of things to bring:

What to Bring

• Work Clothing-Something you don't mind ruining (all shirts must have sleeves, modest shorts)
• Tennis Shoes/Work Boots-Something you don't mind ruining.
• Work Gloves
• Casual Clothes-All shirts must have sleeves. Keep clothing extremely modest.
• Leisure Footwear-Sandals and flip-flops are acceptable at the camp.
• Shower Shoes-Sandals or flip-flops work great!
• Toiletries-Soap, shampoo, towel, washcloth, toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant
• Sunscreen-This is not optional. Everybody will wear sunscreen. The sun in Alabama is more intense than the sun in Northern Indiana.
• Insect Repellent-You think they're bad here...
• Swimsuit-Not sure if we'll get to swim, but just in case (1-piece or 2-piece that covers the belly button)
• Water Bottle-Something with a wide mouth. 5 gallon drink coolers will be at each site.
• Bible, notebook, pen
• Extra money for souvenirs, snacks, etc...-Everything you need is already paid for

Optional

• Flashlight
• Camera
• Hat (to block the southern sun)
• Games (playing cards, etc...)
• Tools (if you have a few that you like better than loaners)

What NOT to Bring

• Cell Phone
• MP3 Player/iPod
• Other electronic devices

Please go over this list several times. If you need work clothes, Goodwill is a great place to get extra t-shirts and shorts on the cheap. Try to keep your luggage to one luggage bag and a carry on that you don't mind sitting with on a bus. I am waiting to hear back from the organization about whether we need bedding or not.

You guys will be leaving early Sunday morning, but I do not have the exact time yet. I will let you know as soon as I get that, but I would anticipate it being around 4-5 am slow. Comment on here if you have questions.
