What does it Cost?

To serve on a Land Based Mission Team, the costs are specific to each week. Please see Land Based Mission Teams for information.

To serve as a Mission Boat Crewmember, the suggested Donation is $800.00 Canadian per week. Please see Boat Based Mission Teams for information.

A deposit of $200.00 per week is required upon booking, balance due May 30, 2009. Upon initial review of application, we will be in touch with you. The deposit will be returned in full if the application cannot be accepted. The deposit is non-refundable. However, we will refund the balance of your booking if we are able to fill the space you canceled. A donation receipt will only be issued for a portion of your crew costs under CCRA (Revenue Canada) guidelines.

The BC Mission boat is self-supporting and as such we are suggesting a donation amount that will help cover the costs of your stay on the mission boat. Typical costs that the mission incurs are leasing of the boat, fuel, moorage/docking fees, water and ice charges, food, Christian education materials, and other miscellaneous items. Our cost per person, per week to stay on the mission boat is over $1000 CDN. We thanks our donors who subsidize the costs to enable others to serve.

Any items of a personal nature, fishing licenses or souvenirs are not included in the Donation. For all crew coming aboard they are responsible for transportation to Parksville, on Vancouver Island. Please contact us for any help you may require in your travel arrangements.

Scholarships for youth or others may be available, please contact us directly. Due to the mission involving water travel and therefore added hazards, the minimum age for joining on as a crewmember is 16. There may be circumstances where youth ages 14 and 15 are accepted as crew - please contact us directly to discuss your individual situation. Should you have other special circumstances you would like to discuss further please contact us.
Please note that families with younger children are encouraged to consider joining a land team.
