The Fine Arts Ministry of Mt Carmel is an intricate part of the worship experience in which we help enhance the service by ushering in the Holy Spirit and creating an atmosphere of praise and worship that postures us to receive the move and purpose of God. We purpose to use the God-given gifts of song, dance, mime, spoken word, and theatrics to create an intimate encounter between the congregants and God.

Usher’s Ministry

The Usher’s Ministry of Mt Carmel is a ministry of men, women, and youth who have committed themselves to serving our church by keeping order in the sanctuary. The Usher’s Ministry purposes to ensure that each person attending our services has a joyful experience free from distractions. As stewards of the temple, we would rather be door keepers in the Lord’s house; welcoming all worshippers with a smile of love and thanksgiving, offering assistance in seating, directing facility traffic, meeting needs, offering a word of prayer.

Our expectation of the worship service is that it is to be a facilitated encounter between God and those who have come expecting to experience His presence, feel His heart and hear His voice. This experience is one of intimacy and concentration and is therefore expected to be unbroken and uninterrupted. It is our responsibility as ushers to facilitate this encounter from the time the worshipper enters until they exit and beyond.

We purpose to Create a sense of belonging for all making sure that each individual feels special and welcomed in our church home.
