Greeters & Welcome Center Hosts
Position:
Greeter/Welcome Center Host
Ministry Area:
Vibrant, Vital Worship

A warm and friendly greeting makes visitors and members feel welcome to
our church. Guests are then met as they exit the worship center in the
Welcome Center area of the narthex/commons, and offered a gift for
worshiping with us. They are asked to fill out a “Guest” card and
invited to the fellowship area.
Ministry Description:
1. Greeters will stand at interior doors and be identified by a name
tag.
2. Welcome those who enter, giving a warm handshake and greeting.
3. Arrive 15 minutes before the assigned service begins and stay for 15
minutes after the service.
4. Thank guests for worshiping with a gift and invite them to
fellowship.
Timeframe:

the number of greeters available. Serving regularly allows greeters to
distinguish between visitors and those who attend the church regularly.
