Greeter Ministry

One of the most universal worries is walking into a new place for the first time and not knowing anyone there. This ministry is designed to alleviate that feeling for our first-time visitors and guests of Livingway.

The Parking Ministry gets to make the very first impression as our members and guests pull into our parking lots. But the Greeters are the first people to interact with them once they come inside our doors. It is our goal to put each person at immediate ease and make them feel comfortable so that they can receive all that God has for them in the service.

We provide information to our visitors concerning the location of our restrooms, water fountains, nurseries, etc. We also share information about the different areas of ministry that we offer such as the age-appropriate Sunday School classes held simultaneously with our Sunday Service at 9:00 a.m. and the J.A.M. Children’s Ministry on Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m.

“A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly…” Proverbs 18:24

The Greeter Ministry is in operation before and after each regularly scheduled service, Sundays at 9:00 and 11:00 a.m. and Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m. We are also in operation when Livingway hosts special guest speakers or conferences.

The Greeter Ministry is divided into two segments: The Lobby Greeters and the Sanctuary Hosts & Hostesses. The Lobby Greeters position themselves in all of the lobbies so they can greet people as they enter the building. The Sanctuary Hosts & Hostesses move from pew to pew within the Sanctuary welcoming people and seeing to their needs.

"For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness." Psalm 84:10 

Are you an extrovert? Are you naturally friendly and outgoing? Do you love people? Do you enjoy meeting new people? This is the ministry for you! You may already be operating in this ministry and not even realize it! If you have become a Livingway member (Class 101: Discovering Livingway Membership & Spiritual Maturity), contact the Church Office and find out how to become an official Livingway Greeter!

Our goal is for every member and guest of Livingway to be able to testify that we are the friendliest church in San Antonio … that they have never been anywhere where they felt so much of the love of God and His people! You can help us make that happen!
