Pastor Anniversary Poems

pastor anniversary poems



Here are some pastor anniversary poems. They will go over much better if the pastor has a sense of humor. And if the pastor doesn’t have a sense of humor, then it might be fun to see how he or she reacts to receiving one of these . . .

Let’s get things rolling with an uncharacteristically (for me) thoughtful poem. Since pastors tend to be thoughtful types, it should be OK.

Pastoral Perspective
By Tom Mulhern

Pastor, pastor, what do you see
When you look out on your anniversary?

Do you see sinners who need to be saved
Or a parking lot that needs to be paved?

Do you see youth who need to be guided
Or a building that needs roofed and sided?

Do you see a choir singing in praise
Or deacons who forgot to give you a raise?

Sublime and petty, it's all there to see
And we lift it all up on your anniversary.

Limericks make good pastor anniversary poems. They’re short and sweet. Well, (blessedly) short anyway.

Unexpected Interactivity
By Tom Mulhern

There was a young pastor whose flock
Kept a watchful eye on the clock
When the sermon went long
They broke into song
And if that didn’t do it, they walked.

Only Good Thoughts
By Tom Mulhern

Pastor, we promise not to make a big scene
We'll also do our best to keep it clean

Which won't be hard, because in your case
There will be no expletives we need to erase

Just uplifting thoughts, and positive attitude
Meant to express our heartfelt gratitude

To you, so that you will clearly see
What you mean to us on your anniversary.

Pastor anniversary poems like the following are not just positive, they are simply crying out to be written into that pastor anniversary card it took forever to find.

Only Good Thoughts
By Tom Mulhern

We can't believe it's your anniversary, Pastor
Every year it seems to get here faster

Just thinking about all the good things you've done
Time really does fly when we’re all having fun

We can only hope you're as happy as we
To be celebrating yet another anniversary.

Here is another limerick, and it’s positive too! I’m on a roll. This one is specific to the first year pastor anniversary when it’s been a good year. I considered composing a companion limerick in case it wasn’t such a good year, which might be more amusing but probably isn’t the kind you’d actually want to give to your under-performing pastor.

Progress
By Tom Mulhern

There once was a church whose pews
Hardly ever seemed to get used
A new pastor did appear
And in the space of one year
Many more came to hear the Good News.
