Is there a compensation structure for positions in the LC?
Does anyone know how serving ones, responsible brothers, elders, co-workers, and all the people that fill various positions (I don't know all the titles) in the LC are compensated for their time and the jobs that they do? I have been lectured to by a current member about how bad all denominations are outside the LC. The claim is that other so-called churches/divisions/denominations are prostitutes because they take a name other than the church in the city, and they pay the pastor and most everyone that works there. Their claims are that no one is hired or paid in the LC. Is this true? They also say that only trainees and full-timers receive a small amount of money to meet their basic needs, but they are still not being "paid."
This person brought the topic up even though I always try to avoid conversations that relate in any way to WL or the LC with them. I am wondering, too, what are all the positions within this organization? How does one gain these positions? An elder was recently removed from their LC, so I know the elders can get removed/kicked out. It seems they do get "fired" even though they claim that they do not hire people.
