Ushers

5 pm & 8:30 am Ushers
- Please arrive 20 minutes before service.
- Pass out bulletins (1 per family). Don’t forget the new kid’s bulletin “Kid’s Speak.”
- When announcements are taking place, pass red attendance books
- Fill out a purple attendance count sheet approximately 20 minutes after the service begins (This gives a more accurate count, as the late comers are settled in).
- For communion, you may release people out of the pews to go up for communion.
- Take collection plates at “Sharing our Gifts.” Start as the singing begins. Two ushers take collection plates up to the altar (or acolyte) when the “Offering Response” begins.

After service, tidy up the pews, and then take money into the church office. Both ushers count money and fill out and sign the Offering Log Sheet. Place all of the collection in a bank bag. Lock bag and put key to bag in the far right hand upper cupboard on hook. Take key from upper hook, marked “Usher Depository Key” and one usher takes the money to the bank (directions are on inside cupboard door to the Arvest motor bank we use. You will be shown how this drill works).

Don’t forget to secure a replacement in advance if you will be unable to serve on your assigned weekend and then let the church office know of the change.
