Armor Bearers

Exodus 17:12 – When Moses’ hands grew tired, they took a stone and put it under him and he sat on it.  Aaron and Hur held his hands up–one on one side, one on the other–so that his hands remained steady till sunset.

 

The mission of “The Mount’s” Armor Bearers is to ensure the support, safety and needs of our Bishop and his family, and to encourage them and pray for them daily.

Ushers Ministry

Psalms 84:10 – For a day in thy courts [is] better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

 

Ushers at “The Mount” greet members and guests as they arrive at the church and walk into the sanctuary for church service, and/or funerals. It is the ushers’ responsibility to ensure that worship services are orderly by determining when people enter the sanctuary, directing people to seats, providing guidance to worshippers during the offertory period, and minimizing people walking about during service. Ushers assist worshippers, as needed, to be comfortable and to have the necessary tools such as offering envelopes, fans, and directions to children’s church and other church facilities.
