Please Help!!!!

Clothing and Other Items Needed

Please do not bring children’s clothes, dress clothes, slippers, bathrobes, pajamas.  Think about what you would wear camping or hiking.  Such rugged, comfortable clothes is just what is needed.  Also, we will have about 4 times the number of male guests as female guests, so about 80% of what you bring should be for men or unisex.  Large sizes (XL,XXL, and XXXL) are very much in demand but small women’s sizes are helpful also.

·         ***All kinds of carrying cases such as backpacks, tote bags, fanny packs, small suitcases with wheels (used and in good condition)

·         ***Toiletries such as bars of soap, shampoo, deodorant, hand and body lotion, chap stick, tooth paste, and shaving cream in small sizes, as well as tooth brushes and disposable razors.

·         ***New white socks (there can never be too many of these)

·         New underwear (again, there can never be too many and be sure to bring 80% of the underwear for men but women NEED them too!)

·         New white T-shirts for men

·         Sleeping bags (used or in good condition)

·         USED CLOTHING, including:

·         Sweat shirts and sweat pants, especially hooded sweatshirts

·         Nylon jackets, ponchos and raincoats

·         Sweaters

·         T-shirts

·         Long-sleeve shirts

·         Jeans, khakis and other casual pants (80 % for men)

·         Waterproof boots, comfortable shoes, and sneakers

·         Hats, waterproof gloves, coats

·         Belts

(The top three starred items on this list are greatly sought after.  Backpacks and carrying bags with straps, new or like new, seem to be in great need)

 If you can help us by donating any of these items, please bring them in prior to March 8^th.  They can be dropped off in the Box in the Christian Education Hallway or see Deb Edgerton or one of the confirmands or senior youth.  We appreciate your help in this very important mission work.  Thank you!!!!
