Good morning, church family! It’s a joy to be gathered here today to worship and give thanks to the Lord. Today is an extra special day because we get the opportunity to celebrate someone very dear to our hearts: our pastor!
On this Pastor Appreciation Day, we pause to recognize the tireless dedication, love, and leadership our pastor pours into this congregation. From the powerful messages of faith and hope shared from the pulpit to the personal moments of encouragement and support, our pastor is truly a gift from God to each of us.
Good morning, everyone! We are so blessed to gather today as a church family in the house of the Lord. Today is a special day, a day set aside to honor and appreciate the one who tirelessly serves, leads, prays, and shepherds us—our beloved pastor.
In the book of Jeremiah, God says, “I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will lead you with knowledge and understanding” (Jeremiah 3:15). We are truly grateful that God has blessed us with such a pastor—someone who leads with love, wisdom, and humility, reflecting Christ's heart in all they do.
Good morning, and welcome to this very special day of worship! Today is a day filled with gratitude, love, and honor, as we gather together not only to praise and glorify our Lord but also to express our deep appreciation for our beloved pastor.
Pastor Appreciation Day is a time for us to reflect on the countless ways our pastor has touched our lives—through powerful sermons, wise counsel, and unwavering dedication to the spiritual health of this congregation. We give thanks for the leadership, compassion, and tireless effort that our pastor pours into the life of this church every single day.
As we see the events unfolding in the Middle East, I felt it would be of value to write a letter to you during this tumultuous time.
The Bible says in Genesis 12:3 (NKJV) — 3 I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
In addition to that very plain directive from God Himself, we also see that we are encouraged to “pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” Psalm 122:6 (NKJV) — 6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you.
I hope this message finds you well and that you are enjoying the summer. As we approach the new school year, we are once again reminded of the importance of equipping our children with the tools they need to succeed.
One way we can support our community is by providing backpacks filled with essential school supplies to children in need.
We are launching a “Back-to-School Backpack Drive” and are seeking your generous contributions to help us achieve this goal. We want to ensure that every child in our community starts the school year with confidence, fully prepared with the supplies they need.
