In many denominations of the Christian Church, a Church usher is the first official representative seen when entering the church. The role of the usher in church is a volunteer position, and is often considered one of honor, particularly if the church or a church committee member selects an usher by nomination. == History == The concept of an Usher is not new. In the Old Testament, there were positions addressed as "Doorkeepers" or "Gatekeepers", and their roles were very similar.(2 Kings 22:4) (1 Chronicles 9:17-27) (Psalms 84:10) Jesus' disciples can be considered ushers, in the sense that they: *Prepared the way for Jesus. *Kept order among those listening to Christ. *Served food to the audience. *Cleaning up after a service, such as the Feeding of the Five Thousand. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Church usher」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
