PLEASE NOTE: We have set up your team’s payment schedule to help your team. We wanted to breakup the payments to lighten the load. The payment dates are very important to get in, on or before, the date that it is due. If your church or organization can pay all of the trip cost on the first payment date, that would help us out tremendously.
When we get your check our local bank puts a 4 to 5 day hold on it. We must then wire it to the local missionaries in the hosting country and that can take 3 to 10 days. The local missionaries must pay deposits on the rooms and transportation. If your team is 5 or 10 days late then it places Macedonian Call Ministries and our missionaries in a bind trying to get everything finished and in order at the last minute.
Congratulations You Are Ready to Go!
