Honorarium
Statement
“Mel
LaMar Ministries, Inc.," is a faith based ministry. Therefore,
in regard to finances, please know that I have entrusted God alone
to supply for every need of this ministry and our family. My purpose
and the longing of my heart is to reach lost souls with the Gospel
and too many times, the question of money has gotten in the way.
Therefore, please know that I have no set fee or financial expectation
assosicated with any of my programs.
I am aware,
however, that many pastors/leaders feel a burden to "do
what is right" in regard to financial compensation,
and my policy of "no set fee" sometimes leaves them
floundering and uncomfortable. So, if you need a number, please
contact me and I will give you a ballpark, "target"
which I believe to be practical, reasonable and do-able.
From my
perspective, however, if you see my ministry as valuable and as
something you want to bring to your church to minister to your
children and/or church family – I'm there. Let's just
agree that I'm coming and trust the Lord with the honorarium.
I have been paid everything from "thank you very much"
to a thousand dollars for the same program. I promise to
give my best to you, the Lord and His children regardless of the
honorarium, and you can be assured that I will receive whatever
you give as from the hand of God and as His will for my family
and this ministry. This method allows me to give my full
attention to giving my best to the Lord and His Church, and to
leave the honorarium as a matter between the host church and the
Lord. I believe this is God's will for us both.
