Waiver of Liability/Assumption of Risk



I am aware that a mission trip such as the one that I am undertaking involves hazardous activities in a distant and remote area of the world with a risk of illness, injury or death by disease, illness and or intentional or unintentional actions by others including criminal conduct. I am also aware that medical services or facilities and police or military protection services may not be readily available or accessible during some or all of the time during which I am participating on the trip. I am willing to accept the risks and uncertainty of this mission trip. I HEREBY ACCEPT AND ASSUME FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY AND ALL RISKS OF ILLNESS, INJURY OR DEATH ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE (BUT NOT THE RECKLESS, WILLFUL, FRAUDULENT OR INTENTIONAL CONDUCT) OF THE MISSION TRIP LEADERS, OTHER TRIP PARTICIPANTS, THE OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES OF ANY CHURCH, SEMINARY OR OTHER HOST ORGANIZATION THAT THE MISSION TRIP IS ASSISTING. I understand that by assuming these risks, I am giving up rights that I, or my estate, would otherwise have to bring a legal action to recover monetary damages in the event that I should be injured or killed or become ill.

Nothing in the paragraph immediately above shall be construed to diminish any right or action that I might have against any common carrier.

For good and valid consideration, I execute and deliver this agreement for cross-cultural mission participants. I have carefully read this document and have had an opportunity to have my questions answered. I am aware it constitutes a waiver and release of significant legal rights that I would otherwise have, and my execution of this Agreement is made voluntarily.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have set my hand and legal seal the date indicated below.


Declaration of Witness:



I certify that (travelers name) acknowledged in my presence that he/she fully understood the meaning and consequences of the foregoing Agreement and signed it in my presence.
