Pastor Appreciation Week: Let’s Honor + Live It Out
This week is more than a celebration—it’s a call to action. Let’s honor Pastors Heston and Sharese Williams not only through words and gifts, but by living out the purpose they’ve helped cultivate in us.
Here are 7 intentional ways to honor and go deeper this week:
- Pray for Them by Name
Take time individually or as a family to cover them in prayer, lifting up their health, joy, strength, and vision. - Send a Personal Video Message
Share how their leadership has impacted you. Every voice builds encouragement. - Bring a Gift or Handwritten Expression
Cards, drawings, poems, or financial gifts can be placed in the appreciation basket on or before Sunday, June 1st. - Be Intentional About Their Family
Bless Ariana, Janese, and Caleb. When God calls pastors, He calls the whole family. - Give a Seed of Honor
Go beyond a gesture. Sow a seed that reflects your gratitude and the impact they’ve made. Make a Gift Online - Worship with Them on June 1st
One of the greatest gifts is showing up in unity and full-hearted worship. Make plans to be present. - Take a Spiritual Next Step
Join a team, start a devotional habit, or recommit to community. Growth is a powerful form of honor.
Let’s not just say thank you—let’s show it through our unity, growth, and generosity.
Honor well. Live it out. Let’s make it count.

As 1 Timothy 5:17 says, "The elders who direct the affairs of the church well are worthy of double honor, especially those whose work is preaching and teaching." Let’s express our gratitude for their unwavering commitment and leadership, celebrating what God has done through their ministry.
While there can never be a price that equals the sacrifice of what godly men and women do for those whom they give care, it is a viable way of expressing our gratitude for their love and commitment to us and to the Kingdom.
Honor the Kids
Help us honor Ariana, Janese & Caleb. They have served and contributed to the Purpose Life Church community, serving in areas such as Missions, Childrens ministry, Praise & Worship, Production and many more. This opportunity to give expresses our profound gratitude for their selfless service and unwavering dedication to both PLC and the Kingdom.

We will be having a special time of prayer on 9/20 for our students and faculty
Please submit names by September 18th
Pastor's Appreciation is June 14th
We are excited for the opportunity to honor our pastors on Sunday, June 14th. While honoring pastors is honorable and something PLC looks forward to each year, we know much has changed over the last three months for many people.
Those who have resolved to their traditional way of honoring should continue to do as you have done, however we do want to provide a way for everyone to be a part of this virtual occasion. Maybe its a smile, virtual hug, private expression or public social media post; whatever you choose, just make it special.
Here are 7 ways that your family can honor Pastors Heston & Sharese this weekend:
- Share a public post/photo to your social media; expressing how special they are and perhaps a special moment, message or encounter you had
- Share and upload a personal video message which your leaders will be able to watch this weekend | Upload it here
- Invite someone to church this weekend.
Our pastors get excited about when we invite people to church especially those who are looking to discover their identity. - Bless them with a love gift.
This weekend is typically the main opportunity each year that individually and collectively we get to sow a seed. This could be of any amount yet should be from the heart | Give Online - Make a commitment to pray for them weekly for their strength, wisdom support and anointing.
It's tough leading a multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, multi-generational church, and combine that with leading during this current season is even tougher. They need our prayers - Reaffirm your commitment to pursue purpose.
Our pastors want us to pursue the divine callings and opportunities for our lives so what better way to honor them, than to recommit to pursuing Gods purpose for your life - Finally on Sunday, June 14th at 12:20PM join us on Zoom in our Virtual Lobby as we get to share, smile, laugh, say thank you and even give virtual hugs to the shepherds of the house

Why should we give
Why do we tithe?
The Bible teaches us that the purpose of tithing is to teach you to always put God first in your lives. (Deuteronomy 14:23 TLB).
Tithing is a reminder that God is the supplier of everything we have. It is also God’s personal invitation to an outpouring of his blessing in your life.

ABOUT
BELIZE MISSION TRIP
JULY 8-15
This July we will be taking a team back to San Ignacio, Belize.
Ever since 2014 we have been able to impact the lives of hundreds of young people and their families; as we share the gospel and help individuals discover greater meaning, purpose and opportunity for their lives.
Belize itself is one of the poorest countries in the Western Hemisphere with thousands of needy children and families living in poverty. Along with so many being not having easy access to education there has also been a disturbing uptick in kidnapping and human trafficking. During this Julys Mission Trip we are expecting to serve approximately 450 kids under the age of 13 with meals, activities, teaching, backpacks and care packages.
Other Highlights and Impact include
- Service projects and neighborhood development
- Mentoring and Young Adult Coaching
- A Women's Empowerment Conference
- Local Leadership Development
