As ushers, we serve with utmost love, compassion, empathy and deep concern. Hence, with joy in our hearts, we take care of the house of God by engaging in cleaning and sanitation, ushering during ministrations, spiritual preparation through pre-service prayers and seeking the interest of others first during church programs. Our motivation and inspiration is our Lord Jesus Christ who condescended to being a bond-servant, setting aside the glory and splendour that was due him and humbled Himself to the point of death – Phil.2:7. The purpose of the ushering and protocol unit of the church is to help everyone that comes into our church have an impactful and refreshing worship experience, also to joyfully minister the love of Christ to all while ensuring orderliness and rendering top notch service to all without discrimination.
