We're heading toward the end of the summer. Have you thanked your volunteers? Here are ten ways to let them know you recognize all the hard work they do!

1. Take one or two volunteers to lunch as often as possible.

2. Help your youth group mow their lawn.

3. Let the youth group chip in for a gift certificate.

4. Make them a personalized prayer journal.

5. Give them movie tickets.

6. Invite them to your home for dinner.

7. Wash their vehicle.

8. Get a couple of teens together to clean their house.

9. Have a banquet in their honor.

10. Write personal “thank you notes” to each volunteer.
