If this trip requires that, I'd politely explain my situation to the choir director and opt out.
You guys are all on a volunteer basis. Would the choir director/pastor of your church volunteer without pay to go to New York and minister? A lot of ministers I know wouldn't go voluntarily hold a revival. A servant is worth their hire right?
It seems burdensome on people who have to support their families needs. Those who don't work or who can comfortably go, should go and support the choir. You shouldn't feel obligated to do so though.
