Sunday Support
Sundays are a very busy, and exciting day here at Maranatha! There is nothing quite like coming together to worship the Lord as one. We offer plenty of outreach on Sunday mornings and like to engage with each other over coffee and fellowship.
Greeters/Ushers:
Various teams of greeters and ushers greet people with warm smiles as they walk into church each week. They hand out bulletins and manage the information desk where people sign up for activities or give their tithes. They encourage newcomers to fill out a Welcome/Connect Card.
Looking for: People who like making others feel welcome, enjoy managing a desk and helping people with a smile.
Approximate Time Commitment: every 4 weeks, arriving at 9:15 am and staying until people leave (around 11:30 am).
Hospitality/Welcome Team:
The Hospitality team is responsible for collecting the Welcome/Connect Cards and handing out “Welcome packages” to newcomers. They help introduce visitors to members of the congregations in their age/interest demographic and offer a small tour of the church.
Looking for: People with a heart of hospitality who enjoy meeting and connecting new people.
Approximate Time Commitment: 9:30am-11:30am every 6-8 weeks
Coffee/Cafe Team:
Are the wonderful individuals responsible for setting up, taking down and cleaning up after service Cafe time.

Section Leaders (formerly Section Pastors):
