WHY WRITE A BOOK FOR CHURCH USHERS?Madge Obaseki wrote this workbook having served in many church departments as a leader, including ushering. Later in her ministerial career as Head of the Training Department, she noticed the scarcity of training ushers received.First impressions count in any sphere, and the local church is no exception to that rule. She maintains that poor first impressions can, and have literally chased away the very people the local assembly was trying to encourage through its doors!Training and developing all labourers in the vineyard is essential for the effective and efficient running of the church. Ushers should be no exception to this rule. As she points out throughout this practical workbook, they are the first point of contact with visitors and create a lasting impression, good or bad.WHAT'S IN THE BOOKHow to be a GREAT Church Usher, is designed as a 4-week course which can be run by Church Ministers, Head of Ushers, Training Officer or anyone who has experience in leading groups. It’s underpinned by biblical principles including a piece on conflict and what the expectations are for an usher’s character.The format contains ready-made Teaching Plans, Objectives and Guidelines, and an Evaluation Form. There are student handouts including diagrams, exercises, and an example usher role description to prepare anyone new to ushering, or to refresh those who might be a little jaded. All handouts in the book can be photocopied.This is an easy to use, essential workbook for any Christian denomination to get to grips with excellent stewardship and hospitality for churchesABOUT THE AUTHORMadge Obaseki is a seasoned minister and leader of just under 3 decades.
