May Ministry Spotlight: Greeting Team
The greeting team at Mount Hope serves the church body with sincerity, a warm smile, an open door, and a firm handshake. Louis Douyon has been the head greeter of this ministry for four years. He is also part of the Deacon Board at Mount Hope, currently serving his second year. As head greeter, it is a role that Douyon does not take lightly.

“During the week I’m a doorman at the Four Seasons Hotel in Boston and I greet there too,” shared Douyon. “I’ve been at the Four Seasons for 20 years.”

“I love to greet,” shared Douyon. “It doesn’t matter whether I’m here, or at work, it makes a lot of people feel special; and sometimes it’s just a smile. Like the other day I had a woman walk in and I said, ‘Hi’ and she said, ‘You make me feel good.’ Greeting for me has a real significance to a lot of people, something you probably don’t even notice when you open the door. People really do appreciate it and the smile or a handshake goes a long way.”

According to Douyon the current need in this ministry is more volunteers. More specifically, the greeter team needs four couples that are willing to become part of the team to serve.

“We need people who are willing to ask God to see where He wants them to serve, otherwise this ministry can be a burden,” expressed Douyon. “I would love to see more people volunteering for ushers or greeters, at minimum it can be a once a month commitment.”

“The greeter ministry has been going on at the church for many years, but since I started leading it has been just couples serving together,” added Douyon. “I think you usually find married couples really enjoy doing this ministry together.”
