Looking for a place for about 15-20 volunteers from Alcester, South Dakota to stay July 10-13th, any suggestions? We can break up the group if needed.

Update on this. I found a list from last week and called each church. Out of about 7 churches, I was able to talk to 2 and confirm that they are still housing groups, but you MUST call ahead to make sure they can reserve space for your group: Calvary Chapel, 600 E. 50 th St., Joplin: 417-782-2141 New Creations Church, 1831 S. Connor Ave: 417-782-8200 Based on Mystery Church's FAQ, it sounds like they need $25 per person for overnight trips: http://missionjoplin.org/#/what-is-the-mission/faq They may still be an option but they need at least a week's notice. And if none of those places works out, please let me know either via a friend request or calling: 417-622-8410
Anyone know of a few churches in the area that are housing volunteers? I want to come help but I hate to look for a hotel and take up space that could be used for displaced families.
Any churches or ideas of where to look to stay?

I work for TiAmo (an Italian restaurant in Tulsa) and the owner would like to donate food. Does anyone know where & how he could go about this?
