Name Tag Ministry

Do you ever see someone at church and not know or remember their name?
The NAME TAG MINISTRY aims to help you with this problem!  Our volunteers will sign you up for a permanent name tag, provide you with a temporary name tag, or help you find your name tag.  We will also encourage you to use your name tag whenever you attend a service, meeting, or other church function.  Our hope is that this will help us all, church members and visitors alike, feel more a part of the Good Shepherd family.

The purpose of the name tag ministry is to reach out to the parish and engage with all people entering our doors . . . offering each a name tag.  The team offers stick-on name tags before the 9 a.m. and 11:15 a.m. services, and afterwards takes orders for permanent name tags. 

The Name Tag Ministry is quite unusual because it requires absolutely no meetings or extra time; only the 20 minutes before and 20 minutes after only  one (1) service  (9 a.m. or 11:15 a.m.)  every 4-5 weeks.  It's a quiet ministry for which there is no glory but which benefits absolutely every  member of the church, by creating an atmosphere of joyful recognition of so many, each time we all enter the doors of our church.

If you think you would enjoy this ministry, please call Gaela Hime at 703.978.1683 to be added to the Roster and Schedule!
