Religious Retirement Gift Wording Ideas

To Our Beloved Retiring Pastor

In Recognition

Of your faithful service to the Lord, to whom,
when He asked, “Whom shall I send?”
You humbly replied “Send Me.” 

Of the difference you’ve made in the lives of
so many as Pastor, Teacher and Friend;

And of the dedication and commitment 
with which you have provided so graciously
your duties as our Pastor

Congratulations on Your Retirement! 
We pray that God will continue to bless you
and your family as you enter
this new chapter in your life
