SURVIVAL TIP #7
>> December 15, 2010
People often love to do something nice for their PW.
But do you know what they like even better? Getting thanked for it!
A thank-you says that their gift or act didn't go unnoticed in your busy life. It tells them you place value on their kindness. And it says something about your character. You are the kind of woman who will pause for 3 minutes and acknowledge the effort of someone else.
Thank you emails are the minimum. A grateful phone call is nice. Hand-written notes are better - if it's at all possible.
In today's world of cold impersonal technology, the warmth of a little note can go a long way.

Absolutely! I often think that being the pastor's wife means buying lots of stamps. People rarely say anything about the notes, but sometimes I feel like the writing them builds good will and small relationships even with the church members I rarely see.
