Dear (Church Member),
It is with a great honor and pleasure to write you this letter today in regards to Pastor Appreciation
Month in October.
Pastor appreciation is a vital part of a church’s successful ministry.
Many Pastors and their families leave their assignments every month in the United States due to
conflict, burnout, or moral failure. There are many more reasons why a Pastor’s ministry might be
long or short, but the congregation that doesn’t say “Thank You” in practical ways will almost
guarantee limited success.
We the church members as a whole appreciate our Pastors, and we try to let him know on an ongoing
basis, but October is the official Pastor Appreciation month. We will be having a special service to
honor our Pastors and their families on October at .
With this in mind, we need you to take the time to write [Pastor’s Name] a note or letter of
encouragement showing your appreciation for him or her. Each church member will be sending these
letters this week. We ask that you send the letter in the self-stamped envelope attached before next
Sunday’s service.
In closing, I would like to encourage you that as you creatively express gratitude to our Pastors, you
demonstrate much more than you realize. Expressing gratitude and genuine appreciation is a very
practical witness to your community of God’s love, grace and mercy.
Thank you so much in advance for your generosity and love for our Pastors (Shepherd of our souls).
Blessings in Christ,
