Pastor Family Welfare
Explore need-based support for families facing verified hardship, illness, emergencies and bereavement.
Independent Pastors & Family Welfare Initiative
Supporting those who serve.
Strengthening the families
behind them.
AICSS is developing a compassionate and accountable welfare initiative for individual pastors, evangelists, mission workers and their families — recognising the people behind the service and the needs they may face through life.
An individual-and-family charitable initiative. Churches, fellowships and other organisations do not enrol as members under this project. The initiative is being developed in accordance with the Trust’s charitable objects and applicable approvals.

Why this initiative matters
Supporting the people behind the service.
Pastors, evangelists and mission workers serve communities in many ways. Like every family, their households may face medical expenses, children’s education needs, emergencies, bereavement, uncertain income and the challenges of ageing.
AICSS aims to listen to these experiences, understand genuine needs and develop a practical welfare framework. The intention is to strengthen family wellbeing and help eligible people access appropriate support, referrals and opportunities.
- ✓Respectful, need-based consideration of genuine family circumstances.
- ✓Clear eligibility, verification and approval procedures.
- ✓Responsible use of charitable funds and accountable financial records.
- ✓Non-discriminatory charitable service, without religious conditions.
