We realize that visitors often make judgement about whether to come back within the first few seconds, yes seconds, of being here. Host team members are often that connection between visitors and the church, before a guest even sits in a seat at Grace. We also want our regular attenders to get a warm greeting as they come to church.
These folks are positioned at the outside doors and the Worship Center doors where they welcome folks, show them where to take kids, where to find the bathrooms and coffee, and answer any questions they may have. They also help people find seats in the Worship Center. Looking for guests and getting to know them is a big part of a greeter’s task on Sunday morning & a smile is key!
This important group of people is gifted with hospitality. They organize events that involve food. Discovering Grace, family dinners, and special events need these folks’ particular attention.
Being on the Host Team is a great place to start serving in the Church. If you aren’t sure of your gifts, any one of the Host Team positions will have you meeting folks, shaking hands, answering questions or finding someone who can answer questions about Grace, and doing the things we are all called to do as serving believers in the local church.
