Pastor Appreciation Gift Tags and Card Printable, Jeremiah 3:15

Three short thank-you messages for a pastor come on these printable gift tags, each with a small watercolor-style shepherd's crook and olive sprig on warm cream paper. Thank You, Pastor carries Jeremiah 3:15 in full, Thank you for shepherding us carries the opening of 1 Peter 5:2, and With gratitude for your faithful service stands on its own without a verse. A matching flat 5x7 card repeats the first design and leaves room for a longer personal note.

Two shepherd verses and a plain thank-you

Both verses on the tags use the old picture of a pastor as a shepherd. In Jeremiah 3:15 God promises his people pastors according to his own heart, who will feed them with knowledge and understanding, and the tag gives the whole verse in King James wording. 1 Peter 5:2 is Peter's charge to the elders of the church to feed the flock of God among them, and the second tag uses its opening clause under the line Thank you for shepherding us. The third design, With gratitude for your faithful service, has no verse at all, which suits a gift from a group where a simple line feels more natural. All three share the crook and olive sprig, so they can be mixed on one table of gifts.

Tags in two versions and a matching card

Each of the three tag designs comes in a standard version and a version with blank To and From lines, which makes six tag versions in total. Every tag sheet holds ten matching tags of one version, so you can print only the pages you need. The tags measure 2 x 3.5 inches. The card measures 5 x 7 inches and uses the Thank You, Pastor design with the complete Jeremiah 3:15 verse. It is a flat card: print the front only and leave the back of the cardstock blank for your own message. The lettering is a classic serif with true small-cap Scripture references, and the small watercolor-style ornament was created with AI assistance.

Printing, cutting and tying

Choose the PDF that matches your paper, US Letter or A4, and print in color on matte white cardstock that your printer supports, at 100 percent or actual size with fit, shrink and crop-to-fill turned off. Print one test sheet first. Tags and cards are rotated on their sheets to fit the paper, with short cut marks outside each design. Cut along those marks, then punch a 1/8 inch hole centered on the small circle near the top of each tag and attach it with thin cord or ribbon. Write names on the To / From versions with a pen. Print single-sided so the backs of the cards stay blank for writing.

For Pastor Appreciation Month and ministry thank-yous

October is Pastor Appreciation Month in many churches, and the set is made for the small gifts that go with it: a gift bag, a bag of coffee or a candle with a tag tied on, and the card with a few handwritten lines from the congregation. It also fits clergy thank-you gifts at other times of year and celebrations for a ministry team. The license covers personal gifting and printing within one local congregation, so a church can print tags for every pastor and staff member it wants to thank. Please do not resell, share or redistribute the digital files. No bags, candles, coffee, envelopes or cord are included.

Frequently asked questions

Can our whole congregation use one download?

Yes. The license covers personal gifting and printing within one local congregation, so the church office or a volunteer can print tags and cards for every pastor, staff member or ministry leader you want to thank. Please keep the digital files within that congregation and do not resell or redistribute them.

Is the 5x7 card folded?

No, it is a flat card. The front carries the Thank You, Pastor design with the full Jeremiah 3:15 verse, and the back of the cardstock stays blank for your message. Print it single-sided. Each US Letter or A4 card page holds two matching cards, so one sheet gives you two.

Do the tags have space for names?

Each of the three designs comes in two versions. The To / From version has two blank lines where you write the names with a pen, and the standard version has no lines, which works for gifts handed out from the whole church. Every sheet holds ten tags of one version.

Which tag has no Bible verse?

With gratitude for your faithful service. It carries only that line and the shepherd's crook with olive sprig, which suits a gift where you would rather not add Scripture or where the card already carries the verse. The other two tags quote Jeremiah 3:15 and 1 Peter 5:2 in the King James Version.

How do I print just one design?

Every tag sheet holds ten matching tags of a single version, so choose only the page with the design and version you want in your printer's page selection. The print guide shows all six tag versions and the card at their exact cut size, which helps you find the right page before printing.
