Service Over Self is an organization whose mission is to provide safer, warmer, and dryer homes for the people in the neighborhood of Binghampton. This is a low-income community with many families that are struggling to meet everyday, practical needs. Our role at SOS is to serve this community through a variety of home repairs including roofing, demolition, remodeling, painting, drywalling, and siding. When we arrive, we will be split up into small groups and assigned a worksite that we will be serving the entire week -- both with the physical work we will do and the relationships we will form along the way. It’s an amazing week of work, worship, and fun. It’s definitely an incredible opportunity that you won’t want to miss! We plan to leave at 11am on Saturday, June 1 and return home on Friday, June 7 around 6pm to 8pm.

Cost: The cost for this trip is $300. We are asking for $50 nonrefundable deposit upon registration and the remaining $250 must be submitted by March 10^th. To ensure that we are the best stewards or our resources, registration will be open for this trip for a short period of time. Spaces are very limited, so don’t wait to sign up!

Registration: Go to www.quakeyouth.org/registration to register. Registration will be open and active on January 17 at 8:30pm. If registration is full, please email mark@ourcornerstone.org  to be put on a “waiting list.” If we have extra spots, we will contact you and let you know that you have been moved from the waiting list to an officially registered participant and at that time, you will need to make a payment for the trip.

Paperwork & Meeting: We will send out paperwork to registered participants as soon as it becomes available. All completed paperwork must be submitted by May 5. We will have a mandatory mission trip meeting on May 5 at 5pm in the BCR (the day after all paperwork & payments are due). If you need a partial or full scholarship, please reach out to Mark Confer we will happily make it happen!

If you have to back out of the trip: If you can no longer attend for some reason, please let us know immediately. Your $50 initial deposit is nonrefundable. However, any additional funds that have been submitted towards your final cost will be returned in case of registration cancellation only if we have another person to fill the spot.
