I was talking to Charles Kaye the other day and was asking some specific questions about clothing, logistics, and stuff like that. Here are some things which would be good for you to know:
1. Piercings and Tattoos - The fewer the better. Any piercings more than in the ear will need to be removed when involved in ministry. Tattoos will need to be covered as much as possible.
2. Clothing Issues - Girls will need to wear dresses reaching the knee or below most of the time doing ministry. At other times, shorts are fine as long as they are knee length. Very few people even wear shorts in Nicaragua. No tank tops, it's best that shirts have sleeves. Make sure you have a sturdy pair of shoes for walking and working.
3. You will be living in a house with running water and electricity. Everyone will have a bed.
4. For spending money bring an ATM card so you can get cash as needed. You won't need a lot, but will need some for personal needs.
5. To get on the internet you will go to an internet cafe. We will provide you with some time each week on line for blog updates and communicating with home. You may need to purchase additional time for skype calls and other things.
The time is getting close. As we have further information we will let you know. We'll see you all in 2 weeks.
