A co-workder friend and I were just talking about our weekend and in the course of talking about Sunday School, he shared that they pay the Sunday School staff a salary to teach the children.
I was surprised -- somewhat -- because I've always experienced any area of the Ministry of Helps as a volunteer position.
Although, I have a degree in teaching, I taught Sunday School for over 12 years and never expected a salary nor even wanted one. I love teaching children.
I've been 'associated' with many, many, many churches and to my knowledge, their Ministry of Helps has always been volunteered. From Cleaning, to Greeting, Ushering, Parking Attendants, Preparing the Sacraments, etc.
Does anyone receive a salary for the work they do in Ministry? I'm not speaking of administrative postitions which require daily work or a regular job. But during Church Services or special events?
Thanks for sharing.![Giveheart :giveheart: :giveheart:](/smilies/giveheart.gif)
