Small Church Pastor

Pastors of smaller churches have one of the hardest jobs in America. Often overworked, under appreciated and underpaid, these faithful servants of God long for a friend, encouragement, validation and resources to help them minister to the members of their congregations. For only $30 a month you can sponsor a pastor, providing them with coaching and resources that work in a smaller church.  

Did you know that various studies and surveys of pastors revealed that:

• 80% believed pastoral ministry affected their families negatively.

• 50% felt themselves unable to meet the needs of the job.

• 90% felt inadequately trained to cope with ministry demands.

• 70% said they have lower self esteem now compared to when they started in ministry.

• 12% of ministers reported that they were depressed often or always in their ministry.

• 70% did not have someone they consider a close friend.

• 33% had considered leaving the ministry.

• 90% said their Bible School/Seminary Training did not prepare them for what they face day-to-day in the church.

• 50% of those who begin in the ministry leave their first pastorate in less than 5 years, never to return to ministry even though they felt called.

Will you help them? For $30 a month you can sponsor a pastor and give them coaching and resources. There is not a week go by that I don't hear from a pastor, either by phone or email, telling me the difference coaching has made in their life. You can make this happen.

"Every study we have done shows that church leaders 
will do a better job leading their church to health if they 
have a coach who comes alongside to encourage 
them, ask questions, offer resources and hold them 
accountable."
