The Church in Inter-America sets aside this day to honor those whom God has called to shepherd His flock—and the families who walk faithfully beside them in ministry. Pastors and their households bear the responsibility of guiding and strengthening congregations, often with personal sacrifice and in silence.

This day is an opportunity to recognize their dedication, express gratitude through simple gestures, and lift them up in prayer. As we celebrate, we remember that the care of the Church is entrusted to faithful servants who need our support and encouragement, and that their family is an essential part of that calling.
