It is with heartfelt appreciation that we welcome back the Greeters into service for the Master. The Greeting Ministry is very important to our worship experience. The Greeters welcome to the Lord’s house those who have come to worship Him in spirit and in truth. (A reference to the Triune God.) Delightful people with a merry heart and a smiling face are certainly an asset to the Kingdom. Greeters set the tone for us to “Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise.” To the Greeters and to every worker here at Friendship, the wise man has a word for you; “Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.” (Eccl. 9:10) Welcome back Greeters and be blessed as you serve Him.
In addition to the Greeters, we appreciate and honor every person who is serving in any capacity at Friendship. Be it ministers, deacons, choir members, ushers, missionary workers, brotherhood, sound room personnel, trustees, or children’s church. We are referring to the totality of the committed workers here at the church. The Lord Jesus said it best: “I must work the work of Him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.” (John 9:4)
Dear ones, it is our time, we are occupying until He returns. Be blessed as you serve.
