You might not be a pastor’s wife, but maybe you’d like some tips on how you can encourage your pastor’s wife. “Flowers for MY Pastor’s Wife” are blog posts written just for you by gals who love their own pastors’ wives!
True Grit. How would you describe the word “grit”? small, loose particles of stone or sand courage and resolve; strength of character clenching (the teeth), especially to keep one’s resolve when faced with an unpleasant or painful duty I recently read a newsletter written by a pastor’s wife about the everyday things happening in their […]
I want to be generous because God has given so lavishly to me through His people that I want to do the same. As the definition of generous states, I want to be ready “to give more than is strictly necessary or expected.” Instead of hoarding my time, money, and possessions I want to learn […]
Pastors’ wives are nothing special. I mean, they are special, but they are also just like you and me and all the ladies in the church. They struggle, they conquer, they laugh, they cry, they survive.

When Jesus was on earth He healed people with a […]
Talents. We all have a talent. Something that comes easily to us. Sometimes, so easily that we don’t realize that it is a gift from God and that it has value. For some it is a skill that takes practice, like playing a musical instrument. For some, it is baking – everything comes out […]
Children are great encouragers. We could learn from them. I love to watch the children in my small church as they go to their Sunday School classes. They are always so excited to see their teacher and give a hug. If you get hugs regularly, you may not realize how precious they can be. When […]
