| Publisher Description: 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.This booklet was born of the need to train new ushers by a veteran usher. After much searching for the necessary tools that came up severely lacking, he decided to pour his extensive knowledge and experience into this helpful guide. With twenty years of ushering knowledge, the author is a trustworthy source of information, but that's not his only qualifying factor. The author also spent twenty-five years in industrial construction as a Millwright and some time as an ironworker. The importance of hard work, a job well done, and attention to detail that are necessary for those jobs shine through in this written work. So whether you're a new usher looking for information, a church-goer curious about the person that greets you at the door with a smile, or you're an everyday person interested in the inner workings of the church, this book is a must read 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 |
