These Pastor Appreciation Letters 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”, and 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!

Dear (FIRST NAME)
“And I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.”

As pastors, we take on the shepherd’s role. It’s our job to seek after the Lord so that we are fed with His knowledge and understanding in order to lead His people.
Thank You for Pastor’s Appreciation Financial Gift – (From Pastor)
Dear (FIRST NAME)
Depending on how well you know me or pay attention to my sermons, you might think that my mom/parents brought me up well, or you might think I was raised in a barn. Of course, I’d like to think that you believe the former over the latter! Logged in Members, CLICK HERE to view and/or copy full text!

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.
