Frequently Asked Questions
1 - What makes We Help Pastors different from other coaching or consulting services?
Most consultants give advice. We actually help.
We’re all about strategy and coaching, but we don’t stop there. We roll up our sleeves and get things done with you. From project management to operational support, we take real work off your plate so you can focus on pastoring people.
Need help figuring out what to do? We’ve got you.
Need help actually doing it? We’ve got that too.
That’s the We Help Pastors difference.
2 - How Do I Know If We Help Pastors Is The Right Fit For Me And My Church?
The best way to find out is by booking a free Strategy Session.
It’s the perfect space to ask your questions and get a feel for how we work. A vibe check, if you will.
We’ve supported pastors from all kinds of churches: big and small, rural and urban, across different denominations and contexts. And we always tailor our support to the unique challenges each church is facing.
So yeah, we’re pretty confident we can help your church too.
Let’s book that Strategy Session and find out together.
3 - How Does A Strategy Session Work?
It’s a free, no-pressure, 30-minute video call where we’ll talk through what’s working at your church, what’s not, where you want to go, and how to get there. We’ll help pinpoint what’s costing you the most time, energy, or momentum, while you get a feel for who we are and how we can help.
After the call, we’ll send over a set of tailored support options to help lighten your load. You choose what fits your church best.
Often times, we’ll schedule a follow-up meeting to clarify the plan. And depending on the scope of support needed, we may host a session with your board to ensure clarity, alignment, and confidence moving forward.
But it all starts with the Strategy Session.
No pressure. No pitch. Just encouragement, support, and a plan to help you spend more time on ministry.
4 - Is This Just For Lead Pastors?
Not at all. While we often work with Lead Pastors, we also support Executive Pastors, associate staff, church boards, and key volunteers.
In fact, bringing in a coach for your team is one of the smartest investments you can make. It saves time, accelerates development, improves results, and boosts retention, all for a reasonable monthly cost.
Plus, many Denominational Leaders, Executive and Associate Pastors also need help getting tasks off their plate or managing major projects.
And it’s not just churches we work with. We also partner with nonprofit leaders and organizations who need support with coaching, planning, operations, or project delivery.
5 - Do You Work With Churches Outside of Canada?
Yes! Most of our work is done remotely, so geography isn’t a barrier. While we’re based in Canada and understand the Canadian church context well, we’ve supported leaders world wide and are happy to chat no matter where you’re located.
6 - How Much Does It Cost?
Be honest, you probably scrolled straight to this question, didn’t you? Makes sense. Cost matters, especially for churches.
Here’s the truth: it depends. Coaching packages, project support, and long-term partnerships are all priced differently depending on scope and frequency.
Now for the good news:
We work with churches of all sizes and budgets, and we can usually build a support plan that fits your context. No matter your size or financial situation, there’s almost always a way we can help.
That said—yes, there’s an up-front cost. But in our experience, most churches see at least a 5x return on their investment within the first year through time saved, staff health, and real ministry progress. Every client we’ve worked with has said the value they received was more than worth the investment.
The best way to get a clear idea of cost?
Book a free Strategy Session. We’ll talk through your needs and follow up with a custom plan and pricing options; no surprises, no pressure, just clarity about a path forward.
