Where should your church plaques be delivered?
Parish Recognition ships church plaques worldwide, and your quote confirms the delivery service and charges for each address. The bigger question is who receives the box. Church offices keep short hours, and a plaque meant as a surprise for the pastor should not be opened by the pastor. Choose an address and a person before you order.
The list helps prepare your request. Shipping availability, import arrangements and transit time are confirmed for the actual delivery address.
Should plaques go to the church office or a home?
Use the address where a trusted person can sign for the box and keep it private. For a pastor appreciation gift, the church office may not work, since the pastor might open the mail. A committee member's home is often safer. For donor board plates or a dedication plaque, send to the church only if staff will be there on delivery days.
How do we receive a dedication plaque at a building site?
A plaque for a new hall or renovated space may arrive while builders are still working. Name the person who will receive it and store it until mounting. Keep the box closed until the installer is ready, and check the plaque against the proof before anyone drills. The Building & Dedication Plaque should be stored flat in a dry, locked room.
Can we send a plaque to a mission partner church abroad?
Yes. Give the country, city and receiving contact in your first message. The written quote names the delivery service and explains customs paperwork and any duties for that destination. Some partner churches have limited mail service, so name a person who can collect the parcel and confirm when it is received.
How should plaques be packed for a recognition service?
Tell us how the pieces will be handed out. For a volunteer Sunday, plaques can be grouped by ministry with a list in each group, so leaders call names in order. For a single pastor gift, one well-padded box is easier to carry into the sanctuary. Donor board plates travel more easily for the installer when packed in row order.
