Have you ever gone to church and back home without a word of greeting from someone else? Do visitors feel welcomed at your church? Dr. Leslie Parrott, a veteran pastor and communicator, describes the function of the greeter and provides practical guidelines on how this vital role in the church may be carried out with grace and efficiently. Not only does he apply scriptural principles, but he relies completely upon Scripture in his development of the various qualifications and duties of the greeter. In this practical, how-to-do it book, Dr. Parrott explains: - The Ministry of Greeting: what makes a good greeter; why greeters are important - The Function and Responsibility of a Greeter - Developing a User-friendly Foyer - The Parking Lot Ministry. Every church can have an effective ministry--and this group will be even more effective if based on The Greeter's Manual.
