Ushers Needed for Sunday Services

This is wonderful way to get to know your fellow parishioners, win visitors to Christ and serve your Lord. The face at the door and in the aisles can be one of the best expressions of Christ that a visitor carries away from a visit to our church. This can be a quiet opportunity to spread the gospel simply by showing up and being present to help parishioners and visitors as they worship at St. Andrew’s. To become an usher please contact the church office at 817-332-3191, ext. 200
