Engage Rev. Creech as a Speaker for Your Event
Hearing Rev. Creech speak is a profoundly impactful experience that surpasses merely reading about him. Inviting him to address a church service or a special event often proves to be a deeply enriching and positively challenging encounter for attendees.
The Christian Action League has structured the terms for speaking engagements to be flexible, accommodating various types of events—whether they are large or small, local or distant, secular or religious.
For church-related speaking events, we kindly request that the hosting church reimburse Rev. Creech for travel expenses at the current IRS mileage rate of $0.67 per mile. The League also requests a love offering to be collected for the Christian Action League and that accommodations be provided if the event location is over three hours from Rev. Creech’s home. Please note that accommodation needs might vary depending on the service timing—morning or evening—and Rev. Creech’s schedule.
For civic or political engagements, the inviting party is asked to offer an honorarium of at least $100, cover travel expenses at the same mileage rate, and arrange accommodations if the travel time exceeds three hours. This ensures that Rev. Creech can focus fully on delivering a meaningful and engaging speech at your event.
**These requests are flexible. Dr. Creech is deeply committed to educating Citizen Christians about the ministry of the Christian Action League and the critical issues facing our state and nation. The League understands each church and civic organization has its unique circumstances, and we ask only that you do your best to meet these guidelines. Your ability to host Dr. Creech and facilitate his message is our utmost priority. The League is fully committed to accommodating your requests to ensure a successful and impactful event.
