TRAVEL INFORMATION
Some helpful information from Sowers and other official sources
Travel Insurance
To help steward ministry resources wisely and avoid unnecessary duplicate travel insurance purchases, all participants who already maintain a personal travel insurance policy are required to provide proof of coverage to Sowers of the Kingdom before purchasing airline tickets.
Please forward your current travel insurance information, including the policy provider and coverage details, as soon as you commit to participating in a trip. Sowers of the Kingdom will review the information to determine whether additional travel insurance is necessary for your travel arrangements.
If proof of existing coverage is not received before airfare is purchased, Sowers of the Kingdom may purchase travel insurance on the participant's behalf if deemed appropriate, and the participant will be responsible for any associated costs.
Thank you for helping us manage trip expenses responsibly while ensuring that every team member has appropriate travel coverage.

Vaccinactions are not required to travel with us. We recommend checking the CDC website for information on recommended vaccinations and speaking with your doctor about any concerns. If you are working on a construction site, a current tetanus shot is a good idea.
