Pastor Appreciation month

is over in just a few days.  In case you’ve been putting the idea of blessing your pastor some way off, you still have time to  love on them and thank them all year long.  October was just put aside to help people remember to honor and openly thank their pastors.

Pastors Lay Down Their Life for the Sheep

A loving pastor will lay down his life for the ‘sheep’ as he is the shepherd of his church.  He feeds his sheep with the Word of God.  He and his wife literally give up their lives for the sheep, keeping watch over them, protecting them from the wolves and leading them.  Have you let them know how much you appreciate, love and give thanks to God for them? 

10 Reasons You’re Grateful for Your Pastors

Make an effort to write down ten reasons you’re grateful for your pastor and their spouse.  Then put those reasons on a card and if you can, give them a financial blessing….your hand baked item…your gift of love however you can express that. 

Encourage one another! 

Do you remember to pray for your pastor each day?  They pray for you.  There is no condemnation here, just reminders that you have put yourself in a church and under a pastor’s care.  It’s a two way street…your pastor’s family needs your prayers, encouragement and love too. 

Leave your comments…encourage a pastor who reads this posting!
