General policy: Reliant missionaries are field staff are ministers of the gospel who exist to support the Great Commission as found in Matthew 28:18-20. "Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” |

Full-Time
Full-time Reliant missionaries field staff are gospel workers who generally perform at or above 40 hours/week. These missionaries staff members are paid as full-time, salaried employees. These missionaries workers are not required to track hours for Reliant, though they may be asked by their local church or ministry to track ministry time worked.
Part-Time 30, 25, or 20
Part-Time 30-, 25-, or 20-hour Reliant missionaries field staff are gospel workers who generally perform at 30, 25, or 20 hours/week. Because the nature of ministry work is sometimes difficult to track accurately track, we ask that these missionaries put ministry workers put in an estimated amount of time per week that equates to these hours. Reliant asks that if any missionary begins staff members begin to average more than or less than 5 hours/week of their current listed hours, over a period of time, they would move their employment status to match their actual hours. However, they are not responsible to track their hours for Reliant, though they may be asked by their local church or ministry to track ministry time worked. These missionaries staff members are paid a prorated salary based on the amount number of hours worked. For instance, a Part-Time 20 Reliant missionary staff member would be paid half of what he or she would be paid if they were Full-Time.
Part-Time: Less than 20 hours/week
Part-Time: Less than 20 hours/week Reliant missionaries are field staff are gospel workers who generally perform at less than 20 hours/week or have roles that are perhaps seasonal with extended periods of low hours/week. Because the nature of these roles is often seasonal and may fluctuate more often, these missionaries ministry workers are asked to fill out a time card and are paid based on hours worked.

Associate Volunteer Missionaries Volunteers are volunteers and not employees or independent contractors of Reliant. Associates are volunteers who have been approved to conduct ministry on behalf of Reliant. That means they have been through the assessment process and, in most cases, are also deputized fundraisers. Associates are able to raise funds to cover ministry expenses. They need supervisors and ministry job descriptions to maintain Associate status. Their ministry expenses are reimbursable according to Reliant's accountable reimbursement plan. Since volunteers do not receive any form of compensation, their service to the ministry will generally be recognized through noncompensatory non-compensatory means such as recognition and praise. International Spouses of Reliant missionaries field employees are required to be assessed and carry at least an Associate status in the ministry. Non-employed spouses of Reliant employees may apply for Associate Volunteer roles if they perform legitimate volunteer ministry within the scope of Reliant's ministry purposes. |
