Requested Donation for a One-Day Work Retreat

 Why do we call this a donation?
    
Although this could be called a fee that is due, we prefer to consider it a donation. We want the Short-Term Missions Program to be accessible to all groups of various economic levels. Each year we have a few groups come that are not able to give the requested amount to us. Please do not allow this request to stop you from coming and serving with us. We recognize that for some churches and groups this donation request is not excessive. For others, this guideline is too much. We would like to adjust this donation according to the circumstances of your group. If you find that this suggested amount is too much, please discuss this with us so we can work with you to come up with a more workable option. Your presence with us and the relationships that will form is what is most important to us.
     
These donations are the primary financial resource to fund the maintenance and development of the Good Works properties and facilities. This also helps to defray the expenses associated with your stay in the Hannah House. Most importantly, your support enables the ministry of our staff, interns and volunteers, including your group, to make an impact into countless lives of people in our community.

May the following serve as a guideline...
      Often groups want to come and serve for a morning, an afternoon, or even a whole day, which we welcome. There is no requested donation for a One-Day Work Retreat. Although, any donation you make will be very much appreciated and will go toward the ongoing needs of this ministry. There is also no deposit required with your application.
     Good Works has many needs that we are trusting God to meet. If you are able or would like to help with the costs of any of these needs, please let us know. We will send you a copy of our needs list. We are trusting God to move his people to help with HIS MINISTRY here. Our needs list is also listed on our website.
