Mission Housing

We offer low cost, short-term housing for mission teams. All efforts have been made for clean and safe lodging upon your arrival.

Our expectation is that you will extend your ministry to all who are guests or residents here. It will be a blessing if you go beyond what is required to leave our building better than you found it, and if you include our ministry in your prayers. 

Cost: $37 per night (includes linens)
Location: MNYBA office in Manhattan
Availability: Please contact Freeman Field at field@mnyba.org or (212) 580-0655

*Please note that our building has limited elevator access and may not be the best option for volunteers needing handicap accessible housing.
