While our speakers would absolutely love to be able to accomodate these requests, circumstances do not make this feasible. We understand that sometimes it can be difficult to come up with the fee that a speaker requires.  However, we do have ideas to help you, and some speakers offer one discounted rate per month so that small mission churches, etc. can afford to bring them out.  Just let us know if you need some guidance on these matters. We want to do all we can to help. I’m sure you understand that it is a real blessing for our speakers to be able to write and travel to speak as a way of supporting their families, churches and monastaries.  For some speakers, their books and speaking engagements are their sole source of income.  Others have one, two, three…or even four jobs, and must take time off to attend your event.
