The Welcome Ministry is comprised of several ministries that deal with the interaction of members and visitors. The purpose of this ministry is to contribute to the spiritual experience of the believer through Christian personality, disposition, and courteous manners.
Greeters – Focus on the needs of visitors and members from the time they enter the parking lot. This is the first interaction that a visitor has and the first impression is very often a lasting one. Greeters have the gift and grace to express social warmth and kindness and are willing to commit their time and energy.
Ushers – These men, women, and children take great pride in providing personal comfort and care to all.
Culinary – These individuals share a passion for food, cooking and serving others.
Altar – Provides for the care and beautification of the altar
Hospitality
New member activities
Often times whenever a person joins a church, they are often lost in the shuffle and sadly forgotten about. At First Saint John activities are planned so that new members feel welcomed and at home at church. In a fun filled setting, whether bowling, or some other fun activity, new members are exposed to the different ministries and programs that First Saint John has to offer, and it is also a time of fellowship in which everyone can get acquainted and feel welcomed.
