Giving Your Pastor and Staff a Christmas Offering

by Rita Hinton

Question regarding different ways to give Pastor and staff a Christmas offering:

In previous years we have passed envelopes out and called it Christmas Cheer for the pastor and staff.

This year we have a new pastor and she does not want envelopes passed out.

Her previous church would give her a Christmas Shower; however, if we do this we still have no gift for the other staff members.

Are there any other innovative ways to get the congregation to provide without the traditional envelope passing?

Reply

Okay, I need some of our brothers and sisters in Christ to help us out here. How do you handle Christmas offerings?

We use the traditional envelopes too. So I don’t personally know of any other way to get your congregation to provide a Christmas offering for your pastor and staff.

Dan Sherman of www.my-pator.com may have some good ideas for you. I will forward your question on to him.

Hope this helps.

 Christmas Gift to Pastor and Staff
by: Cheryl

We get a card for each staff member and assign a person or two to collect the offering for the staff, i.e. keep track of the cards and $ in them. when we donate we are asked if we want to sign the card as well. then the cards and $ are given to the staff the Sunday before Christmas.

If you want to DIY your payroll, I highly recommend you look at using Gusto! It is very user friendly and their support is awesome! Plus they know how to set up and maintain payrolls for churches and nonprofit organizations.

Note: I am a "partner" of Gusto, but as I have told you before ... I never recommend anything that we or our clients have not tried and love =)
