General Policy for LoneStar Ministries Ministry Requests

• We ask that all who are requesting ministry from members of our team fill out a Ministry Request Form. This form supplies us with the vital information we need so that we can prayerfully consider the request.
• It is the policy of LoneStar Ministries that we go out in teams of two or more.
• We view devotion to prayer by the inviting group, with a commitment to prayer covering before, during, and after our ministry, as essential for lasting impact in their community or the Body of Christ.
• Because we are exhorted to "know those who labor among you," we do like to know, and feel that we can work well with, other invited speakers and ministries.
• We request comfortable, peaceful accommodations for team members in a motel/hotel with a clean, family environment. We request nonsmoking rooms, preferably as far away as possible from any bar, club, or other source of noise.
• We request that a book table be available for our materials in a high traffic area for the meeting.
• Because we consider discipling others an important aspect of everything we do, we ask that additional team members be permitted to accompany teams at their own expense if they are not a functioning member of the team. For those coming at their own expense, it is helpful if hospitality can be provided by local families when possible.
• The only financial commitment that we require is for payment of our travel expenses in advance for our team member and companion, and that accommodations, meals, local travel, etc. for the team also be paid by the hosts. We do not require a specific honorarium. We believe all ministry is a partnership of faith between our team members and the hosting group. We only ask that love offerings be received for our team members. For teams traveling by airlines, unless otherwise specified by our hosts, we seek the lowest coach fares for guaranteed seats.
