What Ritual Supplies will I need to purchase for my Kanzo?

Uppon arrival keep around $150 in your hands. This will cover two
items that are nearly impossible to find, your white porcelain Pot Tet
and your Kanzo Beads. I order everyone's beads at the same time so
they are all the same and the right colors.
Two (2) sets of white cotton clothing: Men should have long sleeve
button down shirts and long pants. Women should have 2 long ankle
length white dresses that have short leaves and do not show cleavage.
1 set of NEW special white clothing. These will be your baptismal
clothes, so keep that in mind. Men should have long sleeve button
down shirts and long pants. Women should have 2 long ankle length
white dresses that have short leaves and do not show cleavage. You
can be as fancy as you like. In the past some of my female initiates
have brought gorgeous beaded and lacey dresses while some of the
men have brought with them amazing embroidered African-style white
outfits. Be creative but keep them modest, white, and cool (i.e
breathable).
A Silver Dollar, Quarter, and fifty-cent piece. Each of them should have
a hole drilled into the center or edge of the coin. Please make sure you
place them all in a small zip-lock bag with your name marked on the
outside so we are sure you get your own coins.

a shorts and a sleeveless shirt for both men and women.
