Monday Ministry - Thank You Cards

Thanksgiving is next week, so today's ministry idea has to do with being thankful.

Get a pack of inexpensive thank you cards from the dollar store. Or, you can make your own cards. Write thank you's to your family members and friends. You can thank them for something special that they did for you. It doesn't even have to be something done recently. Or, you can tell them how you appreciate something about their character or personality.

People really like to be appreciated and thanked. It makes them feel good and it encourages them.
