These Pastor Appreciation Letter Samples are a great way for Churches to bless those who are serving the Lord in the calling of Pastor.
The Bible encourages us to “give honor where honor is due”. We believe this is both a wonderful thing to do, but also comes with great blessing for church leadership.
These letters are written by a Pastor with over 35 years of ministry experience. They will be a great addition to ministry efforts!
I wanted to take this opportunity during the Christmas Season to express my thanks and appreciation for all you do, and more importantly WHO you are as we serve together here at (NAME OF CHURCH).
Perhaps as we work together on a regular basis, it might seem that we become used to it and fail to properly indicate how much we need each other, not only as staff members but also as brothers and sisters in Christ.
As part of the leadership team here at (NAME OF CHURCH), we wanted to send this letter of thanks to our church family to express our deepest appreciation for your participation in this very special day in which we showed our love for our Pastor staff and families.
It may seem a bit “early”, however, we wanted to give you notice well in advance of our Pastor's 25th Anniversary of ministry here at (NAME OF CHURCH). The actual Anniversary Celebration will take place September 24-25 of this year so be sure to reserve those dates on your calendar!
This may be used for bulletin or mailed directly to church family.
My family and I would like to take this opportunity to express our deepest appreciation and thanks for the kindness you have shown to us during this special time of showing your love and support to us. Your cards, notes, letters and gifts have been so kind and generous, yet let me assure you that it is your prayers that are most highly valued and needed.
October is here! It seems almost hard to believe, but this year is going by very quickly and we will soon be sharing Christmas news with you.
Many congregations and denominations have designated the month of October as “Pastor Appreciation Month” and use a portion of that month to honor their Pastor(s) in a variety of different ways. We too, believe in the importance of honoring those whom God has placed in our midst.
