Thanks from the whole congregation

October is Pastor Appreciation Month. Pass one link around the church, the small groups and the choir, and everyone signs the same card in their own hand, with a few words if they like. For this month, the anniversary of their call, or the week after they carried you through something.

How it works

1

Send the link

Everyone picks an empty spot on the card and signs it with a finger or a mouse.

3

Deliver it

Close signing and send your pastor their private link. The card opens, and there everyone is.

FAQ

How does everyone sign it?

Send them the signing link: a text, the group chat, an email, wherever your people are. There's no sign-up. They open it, pick an empty spot, and sign with a finger or a mouse, with a note if they like.

How do they get it?

You get a second, private link for your pastor. Send it when everyone's signed, and it opens the finished card with every note, photo and voice message on it.

What does it cost?

$4 for the card, paid once, however many people sign. Photos and voice messages are $2 each, and glitter is free.

Is there a limit on signers?

No. The card grows a ring at a time as people sign, so there's always room for one more.

When is Pastor Appreciation Month?

October, in most churches in the US, and many keep the second Sunday as Pastor Appreciation Day. A card is just as welcome on the anniversary of their call, at a retirement, or on an ordinary Tuesday.

Can it come from just the staff, or one small group?

Yes. Whoever starts the card sends the signing link to whoever should sign: the staff, one small group, the youth group or the whole church. Kids can sign with a finger on a phone or tablet.

Can people write more than their name?

Yes. Everyone can leave a short note beside their signature, and with the add-ons, a photo or a voice message.
