Door Greeter – Chambersburg

Our heart as the Connections Team is to create an atmosphere where every person who walks through the doors of Grand Point Church feels seen, known, loved, and valued.

We believe we are not just welcoming people into a building; we are helping create a space where people feel at home and ready to encounter God. And it might start at the door. For many people, a smile, a “good morning,” or a simple act of welcome may be the very first kindness they receive that day. That moment can shape how they experience everything that follows

Responsibilities

As Door Greeters, you are often the first personal expression of welcome people experience. You help set the tone for a church that feels like home from the very first moment.

• Remain stationed at entrance doors, creating a consistent and welcoming presence.
• Arrive 20 minutes before the service and stay 5–10 minutes after it begins. When the last song of the service begins, make your way back to the doors and remain there, serving until the next shift arrives.
• Open doors and warmly greet every guest as they enter.
• As guests leave, acknowledge them with a warm “Have a good day” or “Have a great week.”
• Be attentive and ready to serve; always looking for ways to help people feel comfortable and seen.
• Smile, make eye contact, and offer appropriate handshakes or hugs when welcomed.
• Avoid gathering in groups while serving; stay engaged with guests.
• For guest questions or first-time visitors, personally walk them to Guest Services and return promptly.
  • We are “takers, not pointers”, we don’t just give directions, we walk with people.

Time Commitment: Ideally at least one service a month at minimum

Culture of hospitality 

We believe hospitality is not just friendliness; it is making it easy for people to feel at home and take their next step. Every interaction is an opportunity to reflect the heart of Jesus through kindness, clarity, and care.

• We are “takers, not waiters”—we don’t just point people in a direction, we walk with them whenever possible.
• “Is there anything I can help you with this morning?”
• “How long have you been attending GPC?”
• “It’s great to see you back—how was your week?”
• What is hospitality?
