For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, Than to dwell in the tents of wickedness” (Psalm 84:10).
How that speaks to, and of, the Ushers at Friendship. The humility and dedication of our ushers is truly the personification of a servant of the most high God.
Ushers are people who work without publicity. There is no egotism in the one who would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of his/her God, than share in the life of those who do not honor the God of the universe. No one will stand and applaud the ushers as they go about their duties, however, the ushers are assured of the following: “For the Lord God is a Sun and Shield; the Lord bestows [Present] grace and favor and [future] glory (honor, splendor, and heavenly bliss)! No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly”.
To Trustee James Craig Miller and to the members of the Usher Board, this Church thanks you for your faithful service and your commitment to an orderly worship experience.
May the Lord continue to bless you as you serve this Church and your God.
Pastor J. Amos Jones
