Love – In I Corinthians 13:13 the apostle Paul says, of faith, hope and love, that love is the greatest of these things. If you genuinely love the people you serve as an usher, God will bless your actions.
Joy – Take God seriously, but don’t take yourself too seriously. Lighten up and enjoy the moment. Your spirit will be contagious to others.
Peace – You can add peace, calm, and order to what might otherwise be an overwhelming and hectic experience.
Patience – This is a great quality of a good usher. You can set a good example with your patience toward congregation members and fellow ushers..
Kindness – This is the attitude that makes you approachable as an usher. Think of all the ways you could show kindness to someone as they come to worship.
Goodness – The inner quality of goodness is a gift that results from the Holy Spirit’s power working within us. This will spill over into your service and bring a powerful presence into the worship experience.
Faithfulness – Faithfulness as a Christian bleeds over into your faithfulness as an usher. Showing up, being responsible and doing your ministry well matters to everyone. It matters to God, and it matters to all those who call your church home.
Gentleness – A mature usher never throws around his or her authority. The best usher is a humble one who seeks to put others first no matter how much pressure may be present in the moment.
Self-Control – It is impossible to control a large crowd if we cannot control ourselves. In calm moments self-control is easy, it’s under the pressure of hectic moments and last minute changes that your grace and self-control will shine.
