Guest Services

• Greeter Team members make sure everyone who comes in the door receives a personal welcome. They’re the message before the message! Research shows that people form their impressions about a church in the first 3 minutes they’re there, and in the last 3 minutes before they leave. So this role is critical! Greeters also offer directions, answer questions, hold doors, (hold umbrellas when it rains), etc.  They hand out programs, take attendance, monitor overall building safety, and attend to guest needs throughout the service as needed. 
• Sunday Morning Production Assistant: Calling all sticklers! This person spends about an hour Sunday morning, running through a pre-determined checklist to make sure all I’s are dotted and t’s crossed, from the front entryway to the auditorium, and from the children’s area to the information table. Is everything in tip-top shape to WOW our guests and ensure a great Sunday morning experience? This person is on the job!
• Hospitality Team: Make or purchase, and/or help serve refreshments for our guests following Sunday morning services. Prepare and serve coffee, pop popcorn, as well as help with set up and clean up in the HVCC kitchen.
• Guest Services Attendant: Be available at the HVCC information table following Sunday morning services to answer guest questions about upcoming events and HVCC programs. Training is available, but you don’t have to have all the answers. Capture questions that require follow up by HVCC staff or ministry leaders and deliver them to the office.

The Christian Service Ignited team is involved in “kindness outreaches”. The goal is to show the love of Jesus in a practical way. This team shows kindness to members of our community by planning and coordinating churchwide “doing” tasks (washing cars, carrying groceries, raking leaves, etc.) or giving small gifts such as soda, gum, toys, water, etc.  We hope to touch everyone in our target area (6,000+ people) every year!

Big Sunday Planning Team
We call it “Big Sunday.” What it means is a big push to reach more people who are far from God and draw them closer to Him.

Be a member of the team to work months ahead of these events, planning and implementing communications, serving, ministry and other efforts to make these events as impactful as possible.
