“For a day in Thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the House of GOD, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.”

Psalm 84:10, KJV

St. John Missionary Baptist Church has two Usher Ministries for adults and one for young people. Adult ushers serve on the first, second, fourth and fifth Sundays, when applicable. Youth ushers serve on the first and third Sundays.

Our Vision is centered around the five P’s.

• To proclaim the Word of GOD

• To produce Bible-based trained servants

• To provide relevant information to members and parishioners

• To practice ethical values

• To protect and direct the body of believers in the House of GOD

The Mission of the Usher Ministry is:

To create, within the fellowship of the Church, a decent, orderly and reverent atmosphere.

Officers within the Usher Ministry include the President, Vice President, Secretary, Assistant Secretary, Treasurer, Lady Chief, Male Chief and Contact Person.

No. 1 Ushers meet third Sundays of each month after Morning Worship Service.

No. 2 Ushers meet second Saturdays of each month at 10 a.m.

No. 3 Ushers meet Wednesdays before the third Sunday of each month.
