This one holds a special place in our hearts! As former teachers, we are very familiar with the time, energy, sacrifice, and LOVE that teachers devote to their students each year. They go above and beyond just providing an education – they create a safe space for students to learn, explore, and grow as they discover their potential and unlock their passions. Let’s bless them through our gratitude this week!

Ways to celebrate teachers:

* If you have school-aged children: gift their teachers with a few of their favorite things or a gift card to their preferred place.

* If you have teacher friends: surprise them with their favorite coffee or snack and a sweet note of encouragement.

* If your spouse or parent is a teacher: give them the gift of relaxation; take over their responsibilities for the day.

* If you don’t know any teachers: drop off some treats at a local school; the faculty will love the surprise!

If you are a teacher: THANK YOU for your service. Your work is truly a ministry, and your impact will certainly have eternal impacts. You are loved!
