“When we hired our new pastor mid-year, we wanted to make sure we paid him enough to live in our very expensive community. Geneva helped us design a compensation package that increased both salary and benefits in light of the unusually high current rates of inflation. It was a stretch for our church, but God has always provided for us, and we were willing to make that stretch to care for our pastor and his family.”

“After years of seeing the effects that inadequate call packages have on pastors and their families, members in our presbytery worked hard to convince the presbytery that adopting Geneva’s call package guidelines was the right thing to do. Since then, we’ve all come to see this as one of the very the best ways to care for pastors. Every time a call is issued in our presbytery, it must comply with these call package guidelines.“

“Reaching out to Geneva was a game changer! As I prayed about a new call, I wondered whether the transition was financially feasible for our family… The numbers just did not seem like they could work! Geneva’s guidance helped me understand the need for a healthy call package… I’m so thankful for the ministry of Geneva!”
