There is a charge of $180 per group member per week (4-6 nights); $100 per group member for a half week (3 nights); or $65 per group member for a weekend (up to 2 nights). This price includes arrangement of all work projects, educational opportunities, and payment for lodging in a local church. All lodging will include kitchen facilities as well as showers in the church or at a nearby location. Your group is responsible for any and all damage to the host church.
A non-refundable deposit of $100 will hold your requested date and will not be applied to the total cost of your trip. You must send the completed registration and initialed guidelines along with the required deposit. Applying groups will be scheduled on a first come - first serve basis.
