Our Mission and Vision

ChurchSalary was born out of the National Initiative to Address Economic Challenges Facing Pastoral Leaders. Extensive research across theological lines and geographical locations in the US shows that in many cases, if not most, pastors are facing serious financial stresses and obstacles. Some key research findings include that pastors’ compensation contribute to these challenges, including experiencing high levels of financial anxiety, struggling to make ends meet, and considering a future outside of ministry in order to alleviate their financial strains.

Obstacles to fair pay abound; many are legitimate while some aren’t. But the effect is the same: a serious burden for church workers and their families that can make a tough vocation even harder and ultimately hurt ministry. We believe when those employed to serve in the church are paid adequately and fairly through a culture of generosity and blessing, they’re free to focus on the good work of ministry. The result? Ministry flourishes. It’s that simple.
