Create an inviting environment during our services and special events that is:

  • Welcoming
  • Hospitable
  • Friendly
  • Organized

  • Create a sense of belonging by making sure every visitor, member, and guest feels special and welcome in our church home.
  • Decrease the amount of stress, anxiety, fear, and confusion for our visitors and guests through resources, such as:
  • Greeters/Ushers/Security Attendants
  • Welcome/Visitor packages

  • Visitor Cards
  • Encourage a smooth transition from being a visitor to becoming a member.

Biblical Motivation

The word of God teaches us that we have a duty to greet & welcome each other, be hospitable toward others, and fellowship with each other. The motivation for the hospitality ministry comes from the following scriptures.

“Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ send greetings. “Romans 16:16

“Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by this some have entertained angels without knowing it.” Hebrews 13:2

“But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.” 1John 1:7

“The King will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.” Matthew 25:40

 Additional Verses

(1Peter 4:9, Romans 12:13, Romans 15:7)
