Ambassadors for Christ

The purpose of the hospitality ministry is to serve as ambassadors for Christ, demonstrating love for others and making people feel special. It is to create a spiritually warm climate conducive to worshipping God with alert minds and receptive hearts. Lastly, the purpose of the hospitality ministry is to create a lasting impression that makes visitors feel so welcome that they are transformed into friends and want to come back to our church.

Ushers

The purpose of the Ushers’ Ministry is to demonstrate Christian love by warmly greeting church members and visitors as they enter the worship center on Sunday mornings and at special services. The ushers seat members and visitors in an orderly manner, direct appropriate movement during service, and collect the offering. This ministry maintains an atmosphere of consecration and reflection toward God during worship services, promoting a positive worship experience. The goal of this ministry is to ensure that visitors feel welcome and have an uplifting experience that encourages them to come back, again and again.

Food Services

The purpose of the Food Services Ministry is to provide a warm, welcoming, environment in the fellowship hall, ensuring that food of good quality and taste is served at meal functions. This ministry allows the team to use their SHAPE (Spiritual gifts, Heart, Abilities, Personality, and Experiences) to demonstrate the “Fruit of the Spirit” while serving our church members and all who enter our presence, and doing it with a smile.

The responsibilities range from coordinating with other groups, setting tables, serving meals, washing dishes, ordering supplies, preparing or having food prepared, making sure supplies are available for use prior to an event. If any additional inventory is needed, the chairperson should notify the trustees in advance of such items.
