The Ushers and Greeters serve as a Ministers of Hospitality, welcoming all who come to St. Philips.
These ministers serve a crucial role as they are often the first members of our community visitors meet. The usher ministry at St. Philips is open to men, women, singles, couples, families, youth, young adults, and seniors.
People experience the presence of Jesus Christ in the world through the ministry of the church. The first task of the parish community is to reach out to all people in Christian love and service. Christian hospitality draws people together, opens them to participation, and sets the tone for the liturgy.
Every Christian is called to ministry and gifted by the Holy Spirit. This calling is rooted in our baptism. By means of our initiation into the Church and strengthened by grace, God empowers each person with the resources for ministry.
Acting as an usher is a wonderful opportunity to minister to members and visitors by way of our attitude. A smile and a gracious greeting is a very warm welcome to church and by giving everyone a heartfelt welcome, we help set the tone of the congregation.
