The basis of a missionary’s ministerial employment and mobilization with Reliant starts in partnership with a missional church or Gospel-centered nonprofit organization. That partner organization has reviewed Reliant's statement of faith and affirmed the Reliant Memo of Understanding.
...
Partner organizations provide Reliant and its missionaries the on-going supervisory structure that guides the missionary’s daily ministerial ministry. As well, the partner organization has provided clarity for the missionary’s intended role and participated in the assessment and hiring process for the prospective Missionary.
...
The first responsibility of the missionary is to develop their Reliant Ministry Team and gather the financial resources necessary for the expenses of the missionary's ministerial ministry. These expenses include insurances, salary, reimburseable reimbursable expenses, administrative assessments/fees and all ministry related expenses. The payment of salary and other expenses can only happen when funding for the ministry is available through the missionary's MTD efforts.

Employment with Reliant is "at will." The Missionary Field Manual is not a contract of employment and is not intended to create contractual obligations of any kind. Employment will be on an "at will" basis unless there is a specific, written employment contract that provides otherwise. Either Reliant or the employee may terminate employment at any time, with or without notice or cause, and for any or no reason. In order to retain necessary flexibility in the administration of policies and procedures, Reliant reserves the right to change, revise or eliminate any of the policies and/or benefits described in this handbook at its sole discretion and at any time.
Reliant provides Equal Employment Opportunity for its missionaries.
- A Reliant missionary is employed by Reliant rather than , and not the partner organization.
- Reliant missionaries will receive W-2 tax forms as full employees of Reliant, and not 1099s (which are used for independent contractors).
As ministers of the gospel, Reliant missionary roles are ministerial in nature to support preaching the gospel, evangelism, teaching and discipling followers of Christ.
