Invite the Apostle

1. Air & ground transportation

   All flight arrangements must be handled with our office to ensure proper scheduling. To ensure reasonable airfare is obtained, we ask that your ministry prepare the airline ticket no later than 6 weeks before the scheduled service or event date.

   Ticket information should be emailed to his executive administrator at admin@vlgreavessr.com, and directly to apostlegreaves@vlgreavessr.com. If you experience technical difficulties, please contact the executive administrator at (845) 243-4254 as soon as possible.

   All flight tickets must be full-fare, unrestricted First Class or Business. Apostle Greaves travels with his queen, Lady Patricia H. Greaves, on designated assignments; if so, please inquire about an extra ticket your ministry may select to purchase. There is no obligation to do so.

   Airline loyalty membership numbers are provided by the executive administrator once a date is confirmed — they are not published here.

   Upon arrival, we request that a representative of your ministry meet Apostle Greaves at the corresponding airport gate. If the Apostle is travelling alone, please send a male representative to receive him at the designated pickup location.

   Should Apostle Greaves agree to travel out of state by car, travel expenses such as gas and tolls should be considered. Upon agreement, please send travel directions to the reserved hotel and to the event venue to his executive administrator.

2. Hotel accommodations

   Apostle Greaves requests one non-smoking room with a king-size bed. The following hotels are permissible for reservations: Marriott, Hilton, and Hyatt. Room reservations are preferred on the highest floor of the hotel, closest to the elevator. We also ask that a working list of nearby restaurants be provided.

   We ask that upon arrival, the reserved room key be available to Apostle Greaves.

   In preserving the integrity and reputation of Apostle Greaves, male representation only should be sent to pick up and drop off from the designated hotel. To preserve confidentiality and professionalism, please do not give out his room number or telephone number to any constituents of the congregation.

3. Ministry expenses

   When honoring Apostle Vincent L. Greaves Sr. financially, his standard honorarium is $2,500.00 per service. We are willing to work with your budget to the best of our ability.

   If you request that Apostle Greaves receive a consecration seed after he ministers, whatever you desire to bless him with, in addition to the set or agreed-upon honorarium, is at your discretion.

   Honorariums will be discussed and agreed upon before confirmation of the ministry request. We pray that a ministry of your caliber would be gracious and hospitable while considering his travel from New York and his organizational obligations as Chief Apostle of the International Bible Way Church of Jesus Christ, Inc. and Senior Pastor of Christ Community Culture Center.

   Remittance is by cashier’s check, check, or cash, payable to Vincent Greaves. Digital remittance details are provided directly by the executive administrator once a date is confirmed — they are not published here.

4. Food & beverage

   Apostles do not eat before they minister. If a dining experience or fellowship is planned prior to service, Apostles will not partake until they have finished ministering and have refreshed themselves.

   If an adjutant does not accompany the Apostle, his beverage preferences are:

   • Spring & summer, before ministeringApple Snapple
   • Spring & summer, after ministeringBottled water, very cold, and one ice-cold Pepsi
   • Fall & winter, before ministeringHot tea (vanilla, lemon zinger, peach zinger, mango) with three scoops of real sugar
   • Fall & winter, after ministeringHot tea (vanilla, lemon zinger, peach zinger) with three scoops of sugar, and one cold Pepsi

5. Preparation

   Apostle Greaves requests not to sit in the office and talk before ministering. Please allow time for him to change his garments and refresh himself if necessary, and he will be ready to minister.

6. Marketing & promotions

   A quality picture will be sent for marketing and advertising purposes. We will also assist in promoting the event via our internal database and social media platforms.

   Prior to marketing the event or service, we request that you send his administrator a copy of the material for prescreening. Upon approval from his administrative team, the material can be released.

Prefer to call? The executive administrator is at 845-243-4254.
