XPastor tries to help churches by providing some of the essentials for running a church—items like job descriptions, employment applications, review forms and policies. Below is a sample of a Salary Grid from a church on the West coast in 2013. A pseudonym was used to preserve confidentiality.

As an explanatory note, staffing grids are for part-time and full-time support staff. Quad 1 is a starting salary and Quad 4 is the maximum salary. Salaries may be between quads, as the quads are guides for setting salary ranges. Pseudonym used to preserve confidentiality
