Your Ministry Support ($2100 or $2300) covers your lodging, food and
ministry assignment activities. MBMSI asks that you cover the
following additional expenses: Transportation, Passport, Vaccinations and Travel Health
Insurance.
Transportation
To & from Winnipeg: You are required to arrange your own transportation to and from Winnipeg. Please confirm your travel plans with the Central Canada Office
before booking them. If you are travelling by plane, we recommend
that you arrive at Winnipeg International Airport. We will provide transportation from the airport to Seeds Community Church in Altona, Manitoba. You are
welcome to leave any time on the last day (August 15) and MBMSI can provide shuttle
services to the airport.
To & from your Ministry Assignment: You are responsible to
cover the costs of your transportation to and from your Ministry
Assignment. MBMSI will book this transportation for you in mid-May so
that you will be on the same flight(s) as your team members. Once we
have your flight booked, we will inform you of the costs. We encourage you to raise support to cover the costs of your flight. MBMSI will
cover your transportation costs while on Assignment.
Passport
You are required to obtain a passport that is valid six months after
the program ends. For more information about passports, click the
appropriate link: Canada | USA
Travel VISA
Some countries will require you to obtain a Travel VISA to enter their
country. Once we have confirmed your Ministry Assignment location, we
will let you know if you need a VISA. MBMSI will organize the VISAS for your team; the cost is covered in your Ministry Support.
Vaccinations
Depending on your Ministry Assignment location, you may need
vaccinations or immunizations. Once your Ministry Assignment location
is confirmed, your local Travel Health Clinic will be able to give you
recommendations. To locate your nearest Travel Health Clinic, click
the appropriate link: Canada | USA
Health Insurance
You are responsible for your medical costs during ACTION:Winnipeg and
will need Travel Health Insurance. If you have a personal health plan,
you may already have Travel Health Insurance. If not, you can obtain
it through CAA or AAA.
*Important Note
MBMSI is only responsible for participants during the
actual program. If a participant arrives earlier or plans to
stay later than the specified program dates, they will have to make their own arrangements for food, lodging, and travel.
