Download or read book A Practical Guide for Church Ushers Greeters written by Joseph Brewer and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-21 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is an usher? He is the can do, will do, go-to guy for his pastor during the services at his church. He sets aside his personal desires to serve his pastor, the congregation, and the guests in attendance. He is the smile and extended hand of welcome as you enter the doors to his church. He's the guy ready with the answers to your questions or he knows where to get the answers. The professional manner in which he conducts himself creates a smooth and seamless worship experience for all those in his building. He's the watchman at the gate, keeping an eye out for dangers. He has a plan for when unforeseen circumstances arise. He is prepared to act decisively when called upon. He's the man who will show you to your seat and is entrusted to take up the offering.The decision to write this booklet came from the careful study of the somewhat-antiquated handout I have been giving my new ushers to read when they begin their role as an usher at our church. I ordered several more books on the subject to search for a book that embodied everything I wanted to instill in my team of ushers, but my search came up lacking. While these handouts and books were great literature, they did not quite offer the depth that I was looking to give to my ushers. Through this search, I found some to be more ritual than helpful, while others were very heavy on the theology of ushering and church boards but less practical. I wanted something practical and more to the point of how to deal with everyday circumstances in the role of an usher. I wanted to find a book that speaks more directly to the reader. Since my search result came up empty, I decided to write one myself. I approach this subject from over twenty years of ushering experience and thirteen years as a head usher. I also draw from my twenty-five years of working in industrial construction as what is called a Millwright and, for a time, as an Ironworker. During most of my time working in construction, I was the foreman on the job. Years later, I would take from these experiences and apply them in my role being the head usher of my church. After more than twenty years of being involved with various ministries in my church, all the while being a greeter and an usher, I can tell you that in my opinion and experience, being a greeter or being an usher is one of the most important ministries you can take part in at your church. Being an usher and/or a greeter is very rewarding and brings a substantial amount of joy if you approach it the right way. It can also be frustrating, heartbreaking, and at times, very intense.I have been the head usher in my church since 2007. I'm in charge of ushering, greeting, and security. I get to see many aspects of the ministry from various perspectives, and I will touch on all three areas in this book.My life verse is Psalms 84:10. It reminds me, every day, of where I want to be in my life and why I do what I do. "For a day in Thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness." Psalms 84:10 KJV
Download or read book Guide for Ushering in the 21st Century written by Gladys Tywanna Smith and published by JJ Planter. This book was released on 2016-09-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guide for Ushering in the 21st Century is an autobiographical narrative/exposition of ushering that presents actual experiences behind God-guided usher team developments. However, this is no ordinary "How To" Christian book. It is a real story, with real characters in real-life situations that take place on a small church campus. The conflict and climax encountered through an effort to train ushers as key point people in church reflects a challenge that every church go through. The plot thickens with explicit detail that describes real events that happen behind the corridors of the church when leadership seeks to change structures.
Download or read book The Ushers Protocols And Greeters That Every Church Needs written by Albert O. Aina and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-05-19 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I started writing this book in 1994. That was the year the LORD graciously commissioned me to raise for Him Quality leaders. I started with Ministers' and Pastors' workshop. Training for ushers was the second assignment I handled among the three fold mandates the LORD gave me in 1994. But, no book was written by me back then, neither did I come across any specialized book on Ushers, Greeters and Protocols in one volume, 20 years ago. I have been privileged to conduct Training courses across the length and breadth of Nigeria on Ushering ministry for 20 years. I have interacted with over 400 churches from over 280 denominations in conferences and seminars but I never wrote a book on this topic. Our outfit, Christian Leadership Skills, have been involved in mass training for ushers in churches that counted 120,000 on Sundays with Ushers' workforce of about 4,000. I have written 36 books todate, but none on Ushers, Protocol and Greeters until now. A particular mega church invited us to deliver training for ushers and crowd controllers twice within three months in their headquarters church. Their invitation came a bit late I could not be there physically. I didn't have a book on Ushers or crowd control. Only a manual. Churches get confused on the role of ushers as different from protocol officers. I have witnessed ushers and protocols fight for territories in churches. A particular church head usher insists that he must stay side by side with the protocol officer by the altar, very close to the anointed. There was no book to show where each belong. A particular ministry scrapped the word "Ushers" from the list of ministries. The General Overseer banned the entire ushers from officiating in the length and breadth of the church. His reason? Brethren have the Holy Spirit to direct them. No need for Ushers and the church went on "smoothly thereafter". I had no book to give to the man of God. No book I could give, until 20 years later! Who are Ushers? Who are Protocol officers? Who are Greeters? Who are Traffic Controllers? I didn't write any book to explain. I only explain during workshop session. Now the explanation has become handy.
Download or read book Ushers God s Front Line Commanders written by Josef Howard and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2004-04 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a masterpiece on ushers as God's frontline commanders. It deals with the change in God's battle plans in conquering the hearts of man and how he has strategically positioned the ushers as a force to be reckoned with by the enemy who tries to infiltrate the church with the aim of causing harm to the work and people of God. This work depicts the spiritual struggle that takes place whenever the saints of God gather and how the ushers are caught in the middle of this battle. It establishes who should serve as ushers, their secret weapons, and their general responsibilities in the local church. In addition, it deals with other issues such as: ushers and etiquette, ushers taboos, what ushers need to know about the local church, ushers relationship with the pastor (s), different kinds of emergencies that occur in the local church and how to handle them, the role of the head usher, usher's rewards, visitor's expectations, tips for ushering, ushering as a spiritual gift, and many more. In other words, this book scrutinizes the ministry of ushering from an interdenominational and biblical perspective in a way that has been done in Christendom.
Download or read book Ushering with a Mission written by VICTOR L. DAVIS and published by . This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we enter our church, the first person we often see is the usher. While many may look at the position of usher as simply a social one, it can be so much more. In "Ushering with a Mission," author Victor L. Davis presents the first comprehensive guide specifically addressed to the needs of the usher. The traditional approach to ushering focused on the task of meeting, seating, and greeting worshippers. The typical training manual addressed techniques ushers should use in carrying out those duties. Davis's "Ushering with a Mission" goes a step further and emphasizes the importance of disciplining the individual usher. Ushering is viewed as a ministry rather than a committee or board activity. The ministry of ushering is approached from a Christ-centered, biblical perspective. Ushering is not something we simply do because, "It's our Sunday to usher." We do it because it is a lifestyle, resulting from the overflow of the Spirit-filled life. "Ushering with a Mission" stresses the importance of Bible study, prayer, and personal evangelism with nonbelievers. Ushers will find fellowship with other believers in the Body of Christ as they explore ways to fulfill the great commission and commandment of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
