First, I️ want to point out that I don’t use the terms “pastor” & “minister” interchangeably. I believe that “pastors” have very specific Biblical requirements that ministers don’t necessarily met. Ministers, as we know them, did not exist in the first century really, because the roles that we have assigned to them were fulfilled by others, often pastors. (Pastors are also called elders & bishops in the NT.)
All that said, my response to your poll is “No, ministers do not only work on Sunday & no one doing anything for the Lord should ONLY do that one day a week.” 🙂

Just preparing for a sermon each week would take a lot of time in prayer, study, writing, and practice. Then there is counseling. Visiting church members, the sick, elderly, and church visitors. Talking with families to prepare for wedding and funerals, and preforming the ceremonies. I’m sure there are meetings, planning, mid week services and activities.
