The month of October is Pastor Appreciation month. I will take the next three weeks to share three aspects of appreciation.
The definition of appreciation is: Gratitude, expression of admiration, and increase in value.
The first week of appreciation is about Gratitude. We are so grateful for pastors who love people, preach the word with excellence, and live a life of Godly example before the people. Lori and I have served four different pastors in over 25 years of ministry and have appreciated each one for their own uniqueness that they have brought to the table. We have a heart of gratitude for each pastor we have been blessed to serve with. My challenge to you is to do your best in expressing your gratitude to your pastors. My wife and I are so grateful for each and every man and woman who live each and every day giving to the Lord. Pastors we appreciate you!
“Because of the service by which you have proved yourselves, men will praise God for the obedience that accompanies your confession of the gospel of Christ, and for your generosity in sharing with them and with everyone else. And in their prayers for you their hearts will go out to you, because of the surpassing grace God has given you.” (NIV)
