It’s October and it’s Pastor Appreciation Month! It’s time to consider how your church is going to show your appreciation for all your pastor does for your church and congregation. Maybe each Sunday in October you could present your pastor with something special. One week it could be a gift card for a weekend get-away for his family, the next week fill his office with thank you messages written by your church members, the following week have church members sign up to deliver a meal each night or take up a love gift. The lists and ideas are endless, and they don’t have to cost a lot of money; remember it really is the thought that counts, so please put some thought and planning into making this Pastor Appreciation Month one to remember. The apostle Paul exhorts us in I Timothy 5:17, “Let the elder who rules well be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in preaching and teaching.” It’s never too late to say thank you and show your appreciation. #BETHEONE!
