The Pastoral Compensation Tool is designed to assist ministers, sessions, and presbyteries in assessing whether the terms of a minister’s call enable him to be free of worldly care and concern.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to creating a call that is applicable in every situation.

Consequently, what is offered is a tool that provides guidelines for discussion and evaluation of what is to be included in an adequate call.

Bear in mind when using the tool that factors such as years of experience and family size can significantly impact the total compensation amount.
