General Cost

Please note: Hotel – MUST receive a deposit of $150 no later than April 15th

Please send your deposit to:
M & O c of C
c/o Hotel Deposit
P. O. Box #1004
McAlester, Ok. 74502

Make checks payable to M & O church of Christ. Please put “hotel deposit” in the Memo blank and notify me by email when the check is sent. This deposit will be used toward your first nights hotel bill, but in order to reserve your place the hotel requires a deposit. June and July is a "high tourist" time and it is important that we make the reservation. The rest of the hotel cost will be paid upon arrival at the hotel.

Downtown Hotel Rex:

• Single $40.00 AD (American Dollars)
• Double $46.00
• Triple $56.00
• Quadruple $62.00
  

Transportation

• $ 400 - There is also an airport tax of $50.

Meals

• Breakfast $2 to 5 AD
• Lunch $4 to $6
• Dinner $4 to $6

Working fund

• This one depends upon the desired work of the group.
• Typically around $1,000+ AD is a good idea for projects, etc. Typically congregations are willing to help most with this cost, because without them it's just a vacation rather than a mission trip.

On behalf of the Leon GTO mission team, we would like to say thanks so much for your interest in the Lord's work here in Leon, GTO. We look forward to your visit and know that God will do great things through our combine efforts.
