Usher Boards

Ushers work to maintain the quality of the worship atmosphere and flow of the worship service by providing service and assistance to the minister and the congregation. They greet you with smiling faces when you arrive for church. Ushers may assist you in finding a seat, and even help you find your way around the church. They also assist with collecting the offering each Sunday. Ushers should be reliable conscientious, energetic, caring and dedicated people. Being an Usher is both an opportunity and an obligation to serve God by serving His people.


Bethlehem has a Senior and Junior Usher Board:

  • Senior Usher Board serves on first, second and third Sundays.
  • Junior Usher Board serves on fourth and fifth Sundays.
