I am going on a mission trip with my church to Denver and we can't bring ipods, portable dvd players, ds's, cameras, or anything like that because they have a possibility of getting stolen at the church when we get there. What should i do on the way?

p.s. me and my friends going are 12-14 yrs old

  1. Pray.


  2. Books, Journal and pencil/pen, Draw, Look at the countryside, Songbooks to sing with the other kids, Learn about the other kids families, etc...

  3. You can:

    Play the alphabet game - get letters from signs or license plates but only one per person.  Get from A - Z

    Play UNO card game

    Get books with find a word

    get colored ink pens and give each other tatoos

    find a book of car traveling songs

    play animal, vegetable or mineral

  4. You could bring a book to read or maybe a magazine. Also bring paper and/or pens pencils..etc and play simple "games" like hangman, tick tack toe..or even bring a board game like trouble that can easily be carried without a lot of pieces. You could bring cards and play simple card games like go fish or crazy eights..etc..or if you get really desperate play i spy! lol

    hope this helps..i just got back from a 14 hr. car ride myself..

  5. Wow! What kind of church is it that worries so much about theft?

    O.k. whatever.

    Anyways, you should be taking a journal with you so you can document your trip. Write everything you see there and back. That's what your mission is all about anyways. It's supposed to be a spiritual journey. Right? So, you don't need electronic aides to desensitize your trip anyways. Write that journal. You'll reflect upon it later in life and see how you grew. It's a beautiful thing.

  6. bring a deck of cards. learn to play a bunch of games with them. get a good book. bring a magazene.

    these items will most likely nnot be ann object of interest for thieves. good luck! (also, if ur really desperate, dont sleep 24 hrs prior to the trip and  then sleep on the bus.)

  7. dnt get sleep the nite b4. sleep most of the way there

  8. I think I saw that church, they had a covered collection plate with a slot in the cover! It's a shame that Jesus being so forgiving has made his club into such a cover for criminals who glory in canibalizing on his blood and body and waving those insulting crosses around, gloating over it all and using their deaconship as a cover for all kinds of crimes! I say use the opportunity to study criminal enterprise, as covered and legitimized by phony religion. Jesus is cool, Christanity is something to keep an eye on. The satanists of the day screwed with all the books of gospel before even 50 years had passed. Find Jesus in your heart, but don't trust books. Regards, Larry.

  9. magazine, books, word search, cross word puzzles.    coloring book and crayons-yes, i know you guys are 12-14 years old, but there's nothing else to do.  

    crafting, such as cross stitch, plastic canvas craft kits found in department stores, learn to knit, pot holder making kits.    sounds lame, but it will occupy your time.  

    look out the windows.  

    pocket size checker board, battleship, connect four, uno, go fish.

    take some snacks for the ride.

  10. talk, read a book, sleep, sing songs(Gilligan's Island, Bottles of Coke on the Wall,etc) deck of cards. That is all I can think of.

    Good luck on the 14 hours.

  11. kill yourself.

    and read a book maybe?

    talk to your friends
