    Employee – current airline excess bag fee x 10

    Spouse and eligible dependents – current airline excess bag fee x 5 per person

Return shipping allowance

$2,763 (equal to 1/2 month salary based on our level J target)  In addition an amount for the employee based on current airline excess bag fee x 5, and for spouse and/or each eligible dependent (see Outfitting Allowance section for definition of eligible dependent) an amount based on current airline excess bag fee x 3.

Compensation for church staff varies greatly by size of church, size of church staff, geographic area, urban versus suburban. Job descriptions for lead or teaching pastor, senior or associate pastor, and maybe church administrator might be similar across congregations but beyond that job descriptions and duties can vary greatly. For example one church could have a Master's level Worship Director and the next has a Choir director who assists with the worship ministry, or one Youth Director is an ordained pastor and has 100 youth and 2 part time staff working for him/her and the next is a part time Youth Coordinator who just got out of college and has 30 youth they work with.  A good place to get more up to date information is found at this website
