• We should value our Pastors and show appreciation.
• We also encourage our congregation to give instead of just taking from their pastors.

• There are many ways to appreciate a pastor. We do not have to do the same thing every year.

• Flora, Dorthy and TaraM organized.

• September
• One or two testimonies per service
• Prayer for Pastor and their family
• Chairman of the board presented a fabric CPC scroll
• pastoral_appreciation_schedule_1_.docx

• love offering split evenly among staff
• Made additional boxes for putting your appreciation cards into

• Board should go for lunch with Pastors after each service. We had board meetings and deacon election stuff after some of the services. Plan better.

• September is a good month
  • collect a special love offering that will be split between the pastors on the 1st week of the month.
  • schedule each week to be for a different Pastor
  • On their week, they should not preach
    1. intro from a deacon
    2. show video
    3. have people come up to give testimonies
       • open mic but have some “arranged”
    4. pray for them and their family
    5. encourage congregation to fill out “love cards”
       • love cards should be distributed for the entire month
       • bring the box (should be in the church office)
• Give love offering and love cards to Pastors at the end of the employee evaluation in October.
  • make sure you filter love cards to make sure all the messages are encouraging.

• Pastors like it.
• Love offering was appreciated.
• Video / testimonies are excessive, not nessessary. Don't do this next year.
  • Maybe just a few testimonies.
• Pastors like love cards.
• Chinese side seniors don't think the love offering is needed yearly.
  • Maybe no special offering collection / announcement
  • Maybe just make it part of the love box.
  • Just do an announcement in the bulliten.
• Needs to be encouraging. That's the main point.
• Form a committee. It is better coming from the congregation than from the board.
