Since the beginning of MYW, all host listings have been shared and distributed in a printed Hospitality Travel Directory. We wish to keep that tradition alive for the sake of those hosts/guests who prefer offline interaction. We also offer an Online Listing Platform which operates independently from the printed directory. Hosts may choose to list in either the Printed Directory (and PDF version), Online Listing Platform, or both.
Directory Guidelines & Terms
Mennonite Your Way (MYW) is a network of faith-based people and households committed to welcoming others into Christian Fellowship. Rooted in Anabaptist faith, we seek to share our life together through hospitality, conversation, and generosity. This community includes Mennonites, Brethren, and other like minded faith groups. Hosts are expected to provide a welcoming and hospitable atmosphere, offering what they can. Guests are expected to express appreciation for what is offered and reciprocate with a warm and generous attitude. Using the directory, guests contact hosts to see if the host is available to house them—normally one or two nights, unless otherwise set in the initial contact. All guest arrangements must be made between guest and host. The per-night suggested donation to hosts is roughly $15.00 (U.S.) per adult, $2.00 (U.S.) per child. Guests agree to provide the donation unless an agreement is made between host and guest. MYW as an organization accepts no responsibility for this transaction and endorses neither hosts nor guests. Our motto: “In all relationships let love and generosity flourish.” For the convenience of all, the home of each MYW host should be considered a non-smoking, non-drinking environment during the stay. MYW invites all who agree to these guidelines to apply for and use this directory. The MYW Directory should be used only for your personal or family travel. Please do not loan your directory to anyone who has not applied for and been accepted to be part of the MYW family.
