​As part of our planned “return to normal” in October, we are looking to re-start our Sunday morning Greeter and Usher ministries.
  • Greeters are the folks who, as the name suggests, say a first warm “hello” to those arriving for worship.  In addition, they are there to point the way (to the restroom, upstairs for worship, etc.) for those who may be entering those doors for the first time.  Greeters are posted in the foyer, just inside the main doors, ideally by no later than 10:00am.  Greeter(s) on a given Sunday morning may be an individual, a couple or other team of two, or an entire family of three or more.  Louise Baumgardner and Lois Watson will be preparing a Greeter schedule for distribution to everyone who is willing to serve, but it is absolutely no problem if an assigned Sunday morning won’t work for those assigned.  Simply contact another nearby Sunday’s Greeter(s) and arrange a swap, and then please let Pastor Tom and Rachel (if in time to update the bulletin) know about the change.
  • Ushers typically work in teams of four for the Sundays in a given month, under the guidance of that month’s Head Usher, who is a member of Congregational Council.  Before worship, ideally no later than 10:00, one usher is stationed at the elevator door to welcome those arriving that way and help with any elevator questions, while the others are posted upstairs to distribute bulletins and help with any other needs.  In “normal” times, the usher team receives the morning offering and works together on Holy Communion Sundays to guide everyone forward to the altar and back.  Persons who would be new to this ministry would receive orientation from the Head Usher prior to their service.  Here again, if an Usher cannot serve on an assigned Sunday, they simply notify the Head Usher and a swap/coverage is arranged.
If you would be interested in serving in either or both of these important ministries of hospitality, whether or not you ever have before, please contact Pastor Tom, who will be happy to answer any questions and who will then pass your name along for scheduling.
