Pastor Appreciation Week: November 4 - 10

This year, we're extending our Pastor Appreciation celebration to a full week! From Monday, November 4, through Saturday, November 9, we’ll be surprising Pastors Mike, Mel, and Vicki each day with a themed gift or gesture to express our gratitude for their dedication and leadership.

We need your support to make this week unforgettable! Monetary donations are welcome to help fund these surprises. Please turn in all contributions to Carrie or Ryan by Sunday, November 3. Checks should be made payable to the church, with “Pastor Appreciation” marked on the envelope.

The celebration will culminate on Sunday, November 10, with a Card Shower. We encourage everyone to bring a card with a personal message of encouragement and thanks to our pastors.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Carrie or Ryan.

Let’s make this a week our pastors will always remember!

If you prefer, donations can be made through Venmo. Please include "PA2024" in the "What's this for?" section.
