USHERING MINISTRY

SCROLL DOWN FOR TRAINING​ DATES AND REGISTRATION.

​Ushers have been one of the most consistent and constant ministries in the history of the church. We have been doorkeepers of the Lord and welcome the chance to serve and greet the people who attend our church. We are the first face most people see when they attend service. 

We are always recruiting good people who love to deal with people and make sure they feel welcome at St. Simons Presbyterian Church. Our goal is. to continually improve and enhance the church through our ministry.

If you are interested in serving as an Usher, please fill out the form below and someone will be in touch with you in the following week. Please note that by filling out this form, you are not committing to a specific date. We will first reach out to you to discuss Usher training and then discuss available dates.

Questions?  
​Please contact Jan Rossiter (dogdoc@bellsouth.net) or Ada Owens (ada@sspres.org).
