October is Pastor Appreciation Month. We thank each of our pastors and ministers for sharing their gifts, talents, energy, wisdom, kindness, and time to bless others. We appreciate all you do, every day for your local congregation and the Oklahoma Region of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).

Celebrate your pastor this month! Here are some ideas…..

1. Be Present in Worship: Join in worship with your Pastor and congregation.

2. Write a Letter: Take the time to write a personal note of encouragement and appreciation to your Pastor.

3. Provide Dinner: Pastors have to eat dinner too! How about a restaurant gift card or an invitation to your home for dinner one evening?

4. Supply Favorite Things: Think of a small treat your Pastor enjoys, such as M&Ms, fishing lures, coffee, etc. A thoughtful gift doesn’t have to cost much. The idea of knowing someone spent the time picking out one of your favorite things is a kind gesture.
