Supply Clergy
Supply Clergy are paid at the rate of $200 for one principal weekly service (Saturday & Sunday services and those held on Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Vigil), $225 (total) for two services in the same location. Weekday services $100. Round-trip mileage is to be paid from the clergy’s residence to the church at the current IRS mileage reimbursement rate (2026 = .72 per mile)
Deacons may, at times, be used to distribute pre-sanctified Holy Communion. However, you must receive prior authorization for this from Bishop Stephen Lane. Bishop Steve may be reached at blane@episcopalwny.org or 716.881.0660 x 113
