Hooded Light Jacket (nights and mornings are cool)

Raincoat (preferably light and breathable for mountain-climbing)

Umbrella (a must)

Walking shoes (preferably ones without laces - too time-consuming)

Light dress shoes for use with Holy robes (not urgent)

10 panties

10 socks

2 stretch pants (thin fabric best for Ansu. Capri's okay - room gets HOT)

4 white shirts (words or pictures on t-shirts are okay)

Holy Robe (may use more than once)

New (not required but nice) underwear and white socks and gloves for ceremony

Nightie

Simple jewelry and lipstick - nice for ceremony or photo with DaeMoNim

Small Flashlight (to avoid stepping on your sisters at night)

Soap (liquid biodegradable for body and laundry, such as Dr. Brauner's)

Tweezers

Nail Clippers

Tissues

Sanitary supplies, especially panty liners

Tums

Herbal laxative, such as DC-1's (many have constipation problems there)

Cough Syrup (you'll be glad you brought it after about 2 weeks)

Cough Drops such as Halls or Ricola

Advil

Hairbrush or comb

Toothbrush, toothpaste

Baby wipes or towelettes

Deodorant

Thin Towel

Plastic bags, variety (for laundry, shoes, whatever)

1. Brown - The Completed Testament Age & Ideal Kingdom

2. Blue - Blessed Family and Ideal Kingdom Volume I

Pens, notebook

Radio and headset for non-Koreans

Little backpack or bag to take everywhere (carry headset, tissues, valuables like $)

Shoebag (plastic or other - it's recommended to keep shoes with you to avoid loss)

Pledge card

A few clothespins

Envelopes for offerings (at least 12)

Travelers checks and US and Korean cash are accepted in Chung Pyung (my suggestion: $1000 fee, $200 spending money, and plenty of donation money)

A few addresses and phone numbers

Airline ticket

Passport

Sheet (Chung Pyung sleeping bags are provided)

Pillowcase

Toiletry bag, waterproof

PS - Try to memorize, in Korean, at least the chorus of Grace of the Holy Garden before you go.

PPS - Suggestion: Pack enough stuff in one carry-on suitcase to make it for a few days. Several sisters' luggage came 4 days late.
