Ushers
Ushers do a variety of jobs; from serving as our hospitality hosts to welcome all guests, help them find their assigned section/seats, answer their questions or find the answers if you do not know, receiving the offering and passing out all materials, along with crowd control. Ushers help by making the overall event run smoothly and with limited distractions. One of the greatest joys of being an Usher is getting to see this amazing move of God upon thousands of teenagers. But know that as an usher you will be very busy and on the move the entire time.
