PASTORS RESPITE FUND

Thanking someone for their generosity is vital ministry!

Do you remember your mom saying, “Have you written your thank you notes yet?” Well, guess what? She (as usual) had her priorities right. And guess what else? The church could also use a little reminding about the importance of showing gratitude.

From the pastor to the one who sits quietly in the pew each week, you’ll leave this webinar with lots of ideas and excitement about surprising the members of your congregation, and the communities around you, with your thanks.

In this fast-paced webinar, you’ll discover:

• Why thanking is important
• How to write a great thank you letter
• Other ways to thank members of your congregation

Featuring Cesie Delve Scheuermann:

She is the Stewardship Consultant for the OR-ID Annual Conference (where she also served as the Conference Lay Leader). In addition, she is a Senior Ministry Strategist for Horizons Stewardship.

We strengthen the financial capacity of churches and agencies through stewardship services, planned giving resources, socially responsible investment management, loans, capital campaigns and grants.

We equip clergy to be more effective in serving Christ and the church through personal and life planning workshops, consultations, pastoral resources, and leadership development.
