The month of October is Pastor Appreciation Month. In case you didn't already know, I sure do love my pastor! I am thankful that when we were in high school God brought the two of us together. We had no idea what roads lie ahead, but we were certain we wanted to travel them together. Over the past 10 years we have grown from just the two of us to a total of seven of us. God has blessed our marriage, and he has blessed the ministry he has called us to. My cup runneth over! We are blessed beyond description. There are many things I hope to instill in the lives of our children, but the biggest one is how to love and how to show that love. Today I lead the children to surprise their daddy with a Pastor's Appreciation surprise.
We did a little decorating and we took a few pictures. Then we headed off to the store to get a few paper goods and buy lunch. This is what we decided on.
In the paper goods/ party isle my children had the bright idea to buy some silly spray and a confetti blaster...well, I thought that sounded fun (especially since I wasn't the one going to be sprayed/blasted). Here is what followed.
If you haven't celebrated pastor appreciation month, I encourage you to do so. Being a pastor is a blessed calling, but it is also a very busy and never ending calling. I am so thankful my husband is a pastor. I am thankful for the way he diligently serves the Lord. It is a blessing to me, his wife, but also to his children. Happy Pastor's Appreciation Month!
