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!
On behalf of the Pastor Appreciation Day Committee here at (NAME OF CHURCH), I wanted to take this opportunity to invite you to this special day.
We invite our entire church family to join us for Pastor Appreciation Day on Sunday, (DATE) at (TIME).
We plan to do our best to be a blessing to a Pastor, who has been a blessing to our congregation in so many ways.
In addition to sharing the Word of God with us, he spends many hours studying and preparing. He also visits us during both crisis moments as well as times of great joy. In addition, he has dedicated babies and grieved with us as we have buried loved ones. He has stood at the altar “tying the knot” for couples who pledge their love, and at that same altar, he has also knelt at the altar as someone gives their life to Christ for the first time.
On behalf of our Pastor Appreciation Day Committee, I wanted to send you this note as we look forward to celebrating our Pastors' ministry here at (NAME OF CHURCH) during the month of (MONTH).
We believe one of the more tangible things we can do for our Pastor(s) is to receive a love offering for Pastor Appreciation Day. While we do, of course, pay them regularly, this is an “over and above” blessing!
We will be receiving this love offering on Sunday morning (DATE) in our morning service. Of course, this is just one of the ways that we as a church body can appreciate those in leadership over us, and we would encourage you to bring a card expressing your appreciation for their ministry.
In anticipation of Pastor Appreciation Day on October _____, we are writing to the entire congregation to request letters and notes of appreciation we are compiling for Pastor Doe on this special day.

Pastor (NAME) has labored faithfully for 50 years here at our church. He and his wife have been consistent witnesses of the love of Jesus Christ here in this community and region. For that, we are so thankful.
On Sunday, (DATE) at (TIME), we will be hosting a special service in his honor and as a way to say “thank you” for serving us and this area so well. It's not often a church can celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the ministry of a Pastor, but we can, and we will!
I wanted to take a moment to send you this note on behalf of the committee here at First Christian Church as we look forward to celebrating Pastor Appreciation Day during the month of October.
One of the things we would like to do for our Pastoral Staff is to receive a Love Offering as we show our affection and appreciation for our pastors and their families.
We will be receiving this love offering on Sunday morning, October 7 in our morning service. Of course, this is just one of the ways that we as a church body can appreciate those in leadership over us, and we would encourage you as well to bring a card expressing your personal appreciation for their ministry.
