Mission:
To greet with a smiling face our members and guests, while creating and maintaining a spiritual atmosphere, showing Jesus Christ in our conduct and words.
Description:
The duties of an usher encompass more than escorting the congregation to the pews; they provide service and direction during church functions. As doorkeepers in the house of God, ushers are charged with the responsibility for meeting and greeting each individual entering the sanctuary. The mannerisms exhibited by every usher can impact the frame of mind of worshippers and influence how individuals receive the preacher's message. Before the service begins, they make certain that Bibles, church literature, offering envelopes and other items that need to be distributed are in their proper places. One of the most important duties of ushers is to ensure that everyone is greeted with a smile and met with a joyful spirit as they enter into worship. The First Baptist Usher Ministry is a member of the Baptist Usher's Union of Newark and Vicinity. Our ushers fellowship with churches of the union on a regular basis.
The ministry meets monthly on the 1st Monday of each month at 7PM. To contact the ministry, email usher@firstbaptistchurchoflinden.org.
Ministry Leader:
Sis. Flora Johnson, President, Senior Usher Ministry
