Ushers assist at Mass by welcoming and seating parishioners. They take up the collection, direct parishioners to receive communion, and hand out bulletins. Ushers generally are problem solvers, occasionally attending to emergencies, providing directions to the new parishioners. They also coordinate crowd control during special events and Masses. They coordinate the presentation of the gifts by finding and instructing gift bearers, and help those who require assistance during Mass. If you can relate to many different types of people and are friendly by nature, you’ll be a perfect fit for this rewarding ministry.
