Question for the participating regions in the MZF: How does your service body fund your regional trusted servants? Specifically:

1. Do you fund trusted servants?
2. How are the trusted servants funded? (i.e. hotel reimbursement, mileage or gas receipts, per diem etc.)
3. Does your region fund RDs, RDAs or other trusted servants to the MZF?
4. Does your region fund people other than RDs/RDAs to participate in multi-regional events (i.e. World Wide Workshops etc.)?
5. Does your region have a fund for RCMs who are not funded by their areas?
6. Has money become a barrier to service in your region? (Has lack of available funding prevented people from taking service positions?)

4)Does your region have funding for RCM's not funded by their ASC?

(Answer) The WRSC will fund "needy" RCM's $50.00 to help w/costs

Question (6) Has money become a barrier to service in your region? (Has lack of available funding prevented people from taking service positions?)

Answer:  The costs incurred by myself as RD/RDA in traveling to WRSC meetings bimonthly, averaged more than I could afford . The $50.00 per cycle, did not begin to cover the costs incurred and made it impossible fo me to maintain my position

at the end of the first term for a two  term responsibility & I could not afford to accept nomination as the cost responsibilities were prohibitive.

It is my opinion that service posotions should be funded at a minimum of Hotel costs & current NAWS mileage reimbursement

fees to allow any servant the oppotunity to serve, regardless of financial status. The way it is set up now, in the WRSC, only

the wealthier few can afford to serve as RD/RDA team members. (In my opinion)
