COMMITTEE COMMENTARY:
Ushers: As we begin a new year of stewardship, we want to invite folks to be aware of (and be invited to join!) all the different ministries at All Saints. Ushers are a very visible part of the Church services who welcome attendees, bring the Eucharistic elements forward to the altar, collect offerings, insure a smooth flow to Communion, and greet people as they depart, document the offerings and lock up the Church. Ushers are the first to warmly greet people as they arrive at Church. Ushers enjoy being the first to welcome people to Church and interact with them several times during the service. Chat with Ray Stark if this ministry interests you!
