Here’s a great way to give a church welcome speech in church this Sunday!
Use them either from the platform as someone shares verbally or insert them in your church bulletin.
As a result, you will make people feel “right at home”!
Written by a Pastor with over 35 years of ministry experience. In other words, you will know the letters come from a wealth of experience and/or experiences!
We are so glad to have you with us today here at (NAME OF CHURCH)! This is a very special day as we take the time to “give honor where honor is due” and recognize and appreciate the Pastor(s) of our church during this Pastor's Appreciation Month.
Whether this is your first time with us or you are a regular attendee, we want you to know how much we appreciate having you here with us. We trust you will enjoy the service while experiencing the wonderful presence of the Lord as the service progresses.
We will take some time during this service to let our Pastor(s) and families know that we appreciate them so much. We value their ministry and will not only support them today, but will love and pray for them throughout the year. We trust you will join us!
Whether you are joining us today on-site or online, we certainly want to take a few moments to welcome everyone who is joining us today!
We have said it many times but will repeat it: “We live in challenging times”! At the beginning of 2020, many Grandparents found themselves on the other side of a door or window as you “visited” with your Grandchildren. Your arms ached either to hold your Grandchild or at least to give them a good hug!
But alas, we were told to be sure to maintain “social distancing” and hold back on those natural and God-given instincts.
What a joy it is to gather together to worship on this very special weekend when we recognize and appreciate… work!
It seems that we often lose sight of this weekend as many people simply view it as the final weekend of Summer vacations as school is once again in session. Others may see it as another weekend of cookouts and a day off to celebrate work! (Seems almost ironic doesn't it?)
Well, as we gather to worship today, let's be sure to take a few moments to appreciate the employment we have! Of course, we realize there is really no such thing as “the perfect job” as there are challenges and difficulties that accompany anything that is worthwhile.
We are so glad that you have chosen to worship with us today on this weekend that we look back and celebrate our freedom as Americans!
Someone rightfully said one time that freedom isn't free. Those of us who have lived in America for any period of time recognize that truly this is the case. Men and women have given their lives over the years so that you and I can enjoy the freedom we know, as well as the freedom to be here today to worship God together.
Welcome to (NAME OF CHURCH)! We are so glad you have chosen to worship with us this week!
We take time to appreciate and celebrate our independence and freedom as a Nation. What a privilege it is to be able to gather together to worship God without fear of Government intervention. This is a right we enjoy and should always do our best to protect and defend it, especially in a day when our rights are being challenged more and more.
