Ushers & Greeters Ministry
Ushers
Helping people feel at home and prepare for worship;
“I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God” Psalm 84:10. The goal of the Usher ministry is to prepare all Recharge guests for a positive worship experience. Welcoming, informing and directing people, the Usher ministry cares for many of the “behind-the-scenes” needs of those who worship at Recharge Christian Fellowship Church each Sunday & Wednesday.
“I was glad when they said unto me – let’s go into the house of the Lord” Psalm 122:1.
Greeters
We absolutely love to meet and greet visitors and members that come through the doors of Recharge Christian Fellowship Church.
God asks the church to be a fellowship sharing a common purpose and continually growing in faith. Paul describes the church as Christ’s “body” (Ephesians 1:22).
People experience the presence of Jesus Christ in the world through the ministry of the church. When your local church serves the needs of people, members and non-members, it is an expression of the love of Christ. The church is a servant body, created for service. “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them” (Ephesians 2:10).
Christ calls every member of the church into ministry. The church is “a kingdom of priests” (I Peter 2:9). As a greeter, you are a minister. Every Christian believer is called to ministry, gifted by the Holy Spirit, and in baptism ordained for ministry. (Ephesians 4:11-12) Shortly after Pentecost, the gift of greeting or hospitality (Romans 12:13, I Timothy 3:2, I Peter 4:9) was first exercised specifically for the church and those whom Christ died to save. As believers praised God, they had favor with people. Their love for one another attracted others to their fellowship and “the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved” (Acts 2:47).
God supplies each person in the church with the resources for ministry—scripture, spiritual power, God’s character, and spiritual gifts. A greeter is equipped for his or her ministry by the gifts of the Holy Spirit. These spiritual gifts are special abilities given by the Holy Spirit to make their ministry effective and build up the body of Christ.
