Ideas for Pastor Appreciation Month

October is traditionally Pastor Appreciation Month, a time when congregations recognize the dedication of their ministers. Sunday school teachers and parents can use these printables as a meaningful activity for children. Kids can color a thank you picture or an award ribbon to present to their church leaders after a service.

Creating Meaningful Thank-You Gifts

A hand-colored picture makes a thoughtful gift from younger members of the church. When preparing these pages, children can use crayons or colored pencils to fill in the large lettering and add their own names.

  • Print the folding greeting cards on heavy cardstock so they stand up nicely on a desk.
  • Use bright yellows and golds to color the crosses and church symbols.
  • Encourage older youth to color the detailed mandala designs or add a personal note on the back.

Teaching About Church Ministry

The scenes showing pastors at work help children understand the different roles of a clergyman. While coloring the ministry scenes, parents and teachers can explain how pastors lead worship, visit the sick, and guide the congregation. You can also pair these with fruit of the spirit lessons to discuss the kindness and patience church leaders show every week.
