We realize that many factors lead to a change in ministry. It's common for God to use uncomfortable situations to move us on to new opportunities. In communicating with donors, focus on what is ahead and how it relates to your calling. Don't use exit communication with donors to air confusion, disillusionment, or team conflict. Concerns you may have a need to be directed to those who have the power and responsibility to address those concerns. Negative tones could leave a ministry team member wondering about the value of what they gave previously. That would dishonor their sacrifice.
...
Ministry Team members should receive word of your change 2-3 weeks before the last day of your employment. In principle, you are seeking to time your communication in a way that your donors have fair notice, while not informing them so early that they stop their giving before you finish your ministry.
| Note |

| All missionary employee exit communication needs to be reviewed and approved by the Reliant Program team before being sent to Reliant donors. The deadline for us to receive your letter is 30 days before the end of your employment. (Email your program liaison.) |
