WORSHIP MINISTRIES

The Hospitality & Visitor Recognition Ministry

Sis. Fredia Booker

As worshippers enter the narthex, members of the Hospitality Ministry extend the hand of welcome, issue bulletins outlining the worship service and encourage visitors to register. At a specified place in the worship service, a Hospitality Ministry member or the Pastor facilitates a formal greeting by recognizing all visitors.

 

The Ministry of Stewardesses

Sis. Barbara Ellison

                                                                 Recommended by the Pastor, this select group of women become members of the Stewardess Ministry after the Bishop has consecrated them. They are consecrated to serve by preparing the elements of Holy Communion, Baptism and the reception of new members into the church.
