ST. THOMAS MORE CATHOLIC CHURCH

USHERS

The Mission of the usher at St. Thomas More is that of hospitality. Our service is making parishioners and guests feel welcome and comfortable as we gather for our Eucharistic celebration. Our ushers are able to see the presence of Christ in each person as they arrive. This ministry is open to all parishioners — men and women, senior citizen, parent and teenager. Ushers are friendly people who welcome all ages and nationalities. Their faith enables them to see Christ’s presence in individuals and in the gathered community of believers. Ushers are honest and dependable. They can handle emergency situations with courage and composure. They carry a dignity about themselves even when performing menial tasks. Those duties include: Duties  • Assisting in the seating of parishioners and guests • Providing the weekly bulletin to members of the congregation • Taking up the Offertory collection • Cleaning up the church after Mass, collecting excess bulletins and papers left behind in the pews • Handling emergency situations with courage and composure Contact:
