What do we do when the packing list won't fit?
One mom in Missionary Mommas Worldwide said she was worn out by all the choices. The towel set she'd bought was clearly going to take too much room. She wanted something sturdy, easy to wash, and less bulky.
Before leaving, practice packing-- load up the towels, shoes, toiletries, and clothes from the current official list. Seeing which items take the space is more useful than guessing from a pile on the bed.
For towels, compare their folded size, care instructions, and drying needs. If you're considering a compact microfiber travel towel (like the Grand Tour towel at MissionaryMall) try one at home first. A microfiber towel that your missionary dislikes using won't solve much. Also, your missionary can buy a nice set of fluffy cotton towels in the field.
Bring your list to MissionaryMall and we'll help you build a workable clothing rotation before you buy more!
For Elders: 4-Way Flex Pant Air
$74 each or 5 for $325 ($65 each in the package)
Lightweight fabric, an expandable waistband, and room through the seat and thighs make these worth comparing for a hot or humid assignment. The fabric is 98% nylon and 2% spandex.
The reinforced pockets include a separate pocket for keys or coins. Machine wash cold with like colors and tumble dry low or line dry, following the care instructions.
