These Church Recommendation Letters are a great way for Pastors to get started with the task of providing written recommendation letters for church members and adherents.
Written by a Pastor with over 35 years of ministry experience, they will be a great addition to ministry efforts!
Note: The letter below is only an “example”. You will need to be extra careful in using this as you need to be sure that the letter is a correct reflection of the person you are recommending. Of course, you can always edit the letter as needed.
To Whom It May Concern,
This letter is coming to you in response to a request to provide a letter of recommendation of one of our members (or adherents) by the name of “John Smith”.
Greetings in the Name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
I urge you to consider the Word and music ministry of “Guest Ministry”, consisting of John and Jane Smith to come and minister to your church. They will bring to your ministry platform, an excellent presentation of gospel, along with dynamic music/song to edify and equip the body.
Note on this Recommendation letter: While it is difficult to write a “sample” personal letter such as this due to the uniqueness of each individual, these are some elements that are important to write a letter of recommendation if you are comfortable doing so. One should state the facts as known without being too patronizing.
Warm Greetings,
I am writing this letter at the request of _______ _______ who is presently seeking employment at your company.
I was thrilled to learn that a family in my congregation intends to adopt a child. There are so many children who, for whatever reason, have been left without a family to call their own. I believe that it is pleasing to God when a couple is willing to step up and make a child part of their family.
The Smith family has asked me to write a letter of recommendation for them, and I am happy to comply. I have known this couple for ?? years, and feel that I know them well enough to be comfortable in saying that they will be wonderful parents to any child.
