Being a pastor’s wife I answer the phones one day a week and pastor is always not available that day AND we get out of the house.

Let us be considerate of this and encourage/force them to take a ‘sabbath’.

Help them protect that day. And while you’re at it, ask them how many evenings they are home each week… when was the last time they had a date with their wife (and can you help make that happen)… are they able to spend as much time in the study actually studying as they would like/need. Your pastor needs you to do this and will thank you for it.~ a pastor’s wife
