Does it HAVE to run weekly, or is bi-weekly ok?

Don't sweat it so much - if they really expect absolute fealty without paying you money for it, their being cultish anyway.

You can't run Expeditions (because you shouldn't even have access to them since those are only suppose to be run for AL events) but you can run Lost Mines of Phandelver or whatever happens to be the current storyline season's adventure product (currently Horde of the Dragon Queen or Return of Tiamat, soon to be Temple of Elemental Evil) and the characters will be 'AL legal' as long as you abide by the other restrictions of the AL rules (such as character generation, no adding magic items to the adventure, etc.).
