Retirement is a well-earned time of transitioning for people in the ministry who have devoted their lives to God's service. Pastors may also need to leave the congregation and move to other areas of life and ministry. It is a time of sweet sorrow.

The Crystal Sailboat, with its forward motion design, offers a unique way to honor the retiring pastors for long and faithful service to God. It can also be a great farewell gift for a minister who is moving to new areas in response to God's leading.

Customize with your personal farewell messages and retirement wishes, it will be a lasting reminder for the pastor that he and his family will continue to be on the hearts of his former flock.

Suitable for: Pastor Retirement Gift; Priest Retirement Gift; Deacon Retirement Gift; Pastor Farewell Gift.

Working with this company was an A+ experience from the very beginning. Most impressive were the almost instantaneous answers to my questions, sound advice, and multiple revisions "with a smile" followed by proofs for my approval. They made this project simple every step of the way.

The award was just beautiful; exactly as expected! It is a substantial piece as well, no flimsy light weight piece of glass. It arrived very quickly and I could not be more pleased with it.

DIY Awards provides excellent service and product! DIY Awards service is fast and efficient, and their product was perfect for my needs. I needed a beautiful award that the students of a very special music teacher were going to present to him. Once we chose the perfect award, DIY Awards received our order and sent it out to us in just a couple of days. It is perfect and so beautiful! Thank you so much DIY Awards! I am so glad that I found your company!!

I literally stumbled upon the DIY Awards site when I googled for gifts for a DNP (Doctor of Nursing Practice). I looked at what they offered and began customizing it. I had reservations about the "crystal" they said they would etch in. You never know how people classify the etching surface; some use acrylic and say its crystal in appearance, but DIY Awards, used solid Optical Crystal/Black Crystal.
I chose the cathedral shaped plaque and couldn't be happier. It was the best gift he received, other than his Doctorate.

This is my 2nd purchase from DIY awards and both times they really deserved a 10 star rating. I received immediate response to approve a draft of my order, and received the items within 3 days after approving (promise date was 15 days out). The quality of the work is magnificent with very fair pricing.

We have never had one break. They provide a quality product. We will continue to use DIY exclusively for our award needs.
