Not always, but it helps immensely if you are “fulltime.”  Some missionaries depend on prophet chambers or a fellow Christian’s home in the fair city for living quarters.  These are not always available and obviously can restrict where, or how many fairs you may be able to work.  You may elect to stay with friends, relatives or motels.  However, motels can be costly.

If you are considering part-time service, these options may be viable.  However, for full-time missionaries, it is desirable to have a travel-home.  Which one?  The decision to get a motorhome, 5th wheel, trailer, Class C camper, or travel van is a personal choice, based on your needs and financial circumstances.  The cost of the different types of travel homes is varied and the $ range within each style is huge.  There are pros and cons to each type of unit.

AGM missionaries use each style described and they are all-sufficient and provide a cozy home on the road. Note: considering the statement above:  don’t let your lack of a motorhome, travel trailer, or 5th wheel, etc., keep you from fair ministry.  If God has called you into this ministry, HE will make a way for you to get to events and a place to stay while there.  So, come on!
