pastor appreciation planning by the church

Many church fail to plan early on the appreciation month and are caught up with the last-minute rush which is not good at all.

Let us know that we are serving a living God who is a God of order.

Instead of rushing in the last-minute let us see what you can do to make sure you have planned it well to have success in this month of clergy appreciation month.

Planning ideas

•Select a weekend service in October to honor your entire leadership staff as a congregation.

•Select a Clergy appreciation month planning committee to oversee

preparations for this event. Ideally, the committee should be representative of all members of the congregation (i.e., age, race,

gender, church activity), but should remain small enough to be effective and efficient.

•Plan the details. Your goal is to express appreciation to your entire pastoral staff and their families. List the specific activities you want to undertake to achieve this goal.

•Delegate the responsibilities. Assign the responsibility for each activity on your list to one person. This person may need to enlist the

assistance of others in the congregation, but making one person accountable will improve your results. Also, be sure to involve those

under the direct ministry of staff pastors, such as calling on youth group members to help honor a youth pastor.Communicate your plans to those in your congregation and community.

•Promote your activities. Carefully determine the best means to promote your activities and encourage participation.

•Monitor your progress. Be sure that each responsible person on your planning team reports his or her progress at regular

intervals. Avoid a surprise resulting from a last-minute crisis.

•Thank the participants. Make sure that each person who helped plan, prepare, decorate,serve, lead, entertain, speak, clean up, etc.,knows how significant his or her contribution was to the success of your celebration activities.
