Ushers
in the tabernacle and temple were called doorkeepers.
The psalmist understood the importance of ushers when he
said, "Better is one day in your courts than a thousand
elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house
of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked."
Ushers are the stewards of the sanctuary. Church usher
is responsible for seating guests and maintaining the
order and security of services. The role of a church
usher is a volunteer position and is often considered
one of honor.
