This is a list of ministry supplies we will need in the Amazon. I know some of you have already been collecting things using the list in the handbook. If you have collected anything that is not on this list, bring it, it will still be helpful. These are simply the things that we will be needing the most! Don't feel like you have to have everything on the list.
Also there is a list of host gifts. These are for the people we stay with as we travel and the pastors in the various villages. It is so important that we show them we appreciate them after that are so generous to us. Please make sure you have a couple of host gifts. Please comment on what host gifts you are bringing.
