Pastoral Appreciation Recap – Bishop Ella Ingram
I want to take a moment to sincerely thank each and every one of you who came out to celebrate with me during my 26th Pastoral Appreciation. My heart is truly full.
Over these past few days, we experienced more than just services—we experienced the presence of God in a very real and meaningful way. From the powerful words brought forth by each speaker, to the fellowship we shared together, it was all a blessing that I will never forget.
To every pastor, leader, member, and friend who took time out of your schedule to attend, support, serve, and sow into this moment—thank you. Your love, your prayers, and your encouragement mean more to me than words can fully express.
I am especially grateful to those who worked behind the scenes to make everything come together so beautifully. Your dedication did not go unnoticed, and I appreciate you deeply.
As I reflect on 26 years of ministry, I am reminded that it has truly been the Lord who has kept me, strengthened me, and surrounded me with faithful people like you. This celebration was not just about me—it was a testimony of God’s goodness and faithfulness through the years.
I pray that something said or done during these services has encouraged your heart, strengthened your walk, and reminded you that God is still moving.
Thank you again for celebrating with me. May God continue to bless each of you richly.
With love and gratitude,
Bishop Ella Ingram
