A Retreat Packing List
August 19, 2006 11:26 am
Let me suggest some stuff to pack for the retreat…
- Bible, notebook, pen
- Flip-flops or sandals for the shower
- Bug repellant
- Sleeping bag OR bed linens (pillows are provided unless you prefer your own)
- Towel, soap, shampoo, deoderant, toothpaste/brush, etc.
- Sunglasses, sunscreen, hat
- Modest clothing (please plan on serving)
- Camouflage/grungy clothes (for outdoor events/paintball)
- Flashlight
- Alarm Clock (don’t be late!)
- Small bills/change for the snack bar
- Breath mints
- Snipe bait
What NOT to bring:
- iPods, MP3 Players, CD players, etc… YES, I AM SERIOUS. I do not want to see these things on the retreat. You can listen at home, we are at the retreat to serve others by reaching out, and you can’t do that with headphones on. Leave them home, people.
- Immodest clothes

Hey are we allowed to bring out iPods for like sleep time? I can go to sleep without music but it is kinda difficult and I somtimes use mine during my quiet time…so would that be ok?
I’ll concede the use of iPods (or other music players) in bed between 11pm and 5am. Any other time — I confiscate them.
