Guidelines and Commitment:
1) The church is not responsible for accidents, diseases, or other maladies incurred during the mission project.
2) Participants are responsible for providing their own financial support. Any method of providing financial support, other than personally doing so, must follow the policies set forth by the Global Impact Committee or otherwise be approved by the committee.
3) A partial scholarship may be available through Global Impact as allocate by the committee. Scholarships are not guaranteed nor should they be expected.
4) The team leader for each mission project will have final authority in all decisions made during the trip.
5) Loss of money due to cancellations must be incurred by participants, not the church. Any funds over the total trip cost for a participant will be used at the discretion of the Global Impact Committee. Trip participants cannot ask for a refund of this overage.
6) I agree to attend all required training sessions and complete any requirements according to the timetable set by the team leader.
7) I will conduct myself in a manner worthy of the Lord while serving on this project.
8) I will refrain from any behavior which may compromise my witness (i.e. abusive language, drug, alcohol, and/or tobacco use, etc.)
I have read, understood, and agree to comply with the mission trip policies and procedures of First Baptist Church Hendersonville. Additionally, if at any time while on the project my behavior constitutes a problem, the team leader has the authority to ask me to return home. Any additional cost incurred as a result of this action will be at my expense.
