Rostered Ministers

God’s mission in the world is served when rostered ministers are satisfied and effective in their ministry.

Many rostered ministers have said that financial stress can stand in the way of satisfaction and effectiveness in ministry. Resourceful Servants has developed programs and gathered resources which specifically address the financial needs of rostered ministers.

Retirement Supplement Grants

The Retirement Supplement Grants program offers one-time retirement supplement grants for primary ministry leaders (either rostered or non-rostered) called to ministries on the margins (e.g., mission developments, sites in the Homeless and Justice network; sites in the Vulnerable and Vital network; Strategic Ministries).
