The purpose of this page is to offer guidance as you prepare for your exit from a fixed-term program and Reliant employment. We encourage you to read through it and work through the checklist below.


At Reliant, we feel privileged to serve you and the many other workers God has planted around the world. We are grateful for the opportunity to have come alongside you on this journey. We will miss you, we will always be here for you, and we are excited to see where God takes you next.

Philippians 1:3-6 (NKJV): I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, always in every prayer of mine making request for you all with joy,  for your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now,  being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ."


What to expect when exiting:

titleFinal Pay
  1. Your final paycheck from Reliant will come on the pay date after the last month of work (e.g., Aug 15 for a July 31 exit) unless otherwise agreed upon.
  2. Your final paycheck, including any applicable bonuses, is dependent on sufficient funding in the account you’re responsible for.
  3. Accrued backpay is wiped clean upon exit and will not be paid out after the final paycheck; backpay is not transferred to a spouse (if applicable).

titleRemaining Funds (if applicable)
  • If there are funds remaining in the account you’re responsible for after all expenses through the final paycheck have been paid, those funds will remain with Reliant, as the 501(c)(3) receiving organization. Reliant will make every effort to utilize any remaining funds for the ministry that you raised to work with and other support-based staff.
  • If you are continuing in support-based ministry with another non-profit or church, Reliant can provide remaining funds to that organization. This requires pre-approval from your current/ local ministry and Reliant.

titleInsurance Coverage

Coverage for medical, dental, and vision insurance ends on your exit date, meaning you have until your exit date to use your insurance for medical needs.

  • If you need to continue your medical coverage beyond your exit date (optional), review the  Medical Continuance Coverage  in theField Manual and email  benefits@reliant.org  for information about how to continue your insurance via continuance coverage.
  • If you have an HSA (Health Savings Account), you will receive information from HighMark on how to continue to use your HSA now that it is no longer through Reliant. 
    • You do not lose access to these funds. Simply, your account setup is altered by HighMark due to your end of employment with Reliant.
