Annual Pastor Appreciation Services

Pastor Appreciation Celebration Event

We have a 3 day celebration that takes place once a year. While our goal is to show appreciation for our Pastor and Wife at this event, our church appreciation is expressed throughout the year.

Make Pastor Appreciation Services A Big Church Event

Beginning on a Friday night, we have a regular church service and invite other Churches and a keynote speaker.

On Saturday night we have a formal Pastor and Wife Appreciation Banquet (at a nice local hotel) to honor our Pastor and Wife.

We conclude our Pastor Appreciation Services on Sunday afternoon with a 3:30 service, inviting other churches and a keynote speaker.

Pastor Appreciation Money Gift

At this Service we present a financial pastor appreciation gift. We ask each church member to give $100.00 if they are able to. In addition each church ministry auxiliary in the Church has a goal to raise $1000.00.

This Pastor Appreciation financial gift from all members and ministries are given to the Pastor and Wife. There have been times when we have raised as much as $25,000.00 to express our appreciation at our annual church appreciation services.
