I definitely agree that we need to say “thank you” more to the volunteers (as well as staff) who serve our congregations. The times that I have been thanked by other people in my congregation have meant a lot to me, even it is a few lines in an e-mail or a comment from someone who approaches me after I lead a worship service. But unfortunately, it is easy for all of us to forget to say “thank you,” especially when we are in congregations with lots of volunteers and lots we need to get done. This is a good reminder.
