Usher Ministry This ministry is far too often taken for granted. The primary role of the usher is to ensure that the worship of God is carried out decently and in order. Ushers are keepers of peace and serve to ensure that the worship of God is carried out with dignity. They are often the first "official" representative of the church that people meet. Ushers welcome people as they enter the house of God and their role is to make them feel comfortable and prepared for the worship of God. |
