I have to admit that my motivation was to help churches honor their pastor, since one of the key factors in pastors leaving the ministry is often feeling unappreciated.
Some meaningful pastor appreciation gifts give to me and my family have been family vacations, bed and breakfast lodging, and maybe someday, a family cruise.
I have been so busy in my new career as a hospice chaplain that I have not been able to keep my church focused website up like I wanted to.
Recently I thought that perhaps I could have other people write my website content by sharing their pastor appreciation gift ideas. So I asked readers to Share Pastor Appreciation Gift Ideas.
I created the following invitation: Would you Share your Pastor Appreciation Gift Ideas? Tell us how you honored your pastor, expressing your appreciation through special appreciation gifts.
What I wanted was for readers to take the opportunity to creatively communicate how they made Pastor Appreciation Month special through their appreciation gift ideas.
What I hoped would happen is by having readers share gift giving ideas would prompt other churches to remember to pay tribute to their pastor by giving special pastor appreciation gifts to honor their pastor.
