Although our locality sent people to the full-time training we never had a full-time serving one. We would support the full-timers in other LSs, but never had one.

Here is the evidence that a church that is not 100% gung-ho for the full enchilada can remain in the LSM fold. But the key is probably that they don't speak against the things the group (the LSM synod of the LCM) holds dear, like LSM materials only (a variant on KJV only), and supporting the full timers.
