October is traditionally recognized in various parts of the world as Clergy Appreciation Month. the Mystical Order of Spiritual Baptist is encouraged to celebrate with their clergy who sacrifice and faithfully serve the Lord and His church.
The Apostle Paul wrote to Timothy, ‘The elders who direct the affairs of the church well are worthy of double honour, especially those whose work is preaching and teaching’ (1 Timothy 5:17). Those who do the ‘preaching and teaching’ in your congregation will be deeply honoured through your expressions of grace. Celebrate those who have answered God’s call and are serving with intentionality. |
Remember, clergy include all those who serve pastorally, and this month of appreciation is for all of them. So gather a Sunday School class, home group, or engage the entire congregation. October is the time to say, ‘thank you’ with a donation.
