Nametags or “Usher/Greeter” badges — what works for your church?

[Krista Kutz]

Hello all,

Quick question for those involved with hospitality ministries.

Do volunteers at your church wear nametags on Sundays—either personalized with their own names, or more general badges that say “Usher” or “Greeter”, etc.?

When I'm in a new church, I appreciate how nametags make it easier to spot someone to ask a question or make a personal connection. My own parish is considering introducing this for Greeters and Ushers. Although I’m drawn to personalized nametags, I’m also curious whether parishes using shared “Usher” or “Greeter” badges find those easier to manage over time.

If you’re willing to share:

• Which volunteers wear nametags or badges at your church?
• How do you keep them organized?
• Any pros or cons you’ve noticed between personalized nametags and role-based badges?

Thanks in advance for sharing what’s worked in your community—I always appreciate learning from you and sharing with others!

Peace,
Krista

Hello, Krista.  Happy new year.  

Yes, our ushers/greeters (one and the same) wear name tags.  They are personalized to the usher as we have the same group of ushers taking turns.  We just have a container in the back of church where the name tags are kept.  That's assuming he/she remembers to take it off before they leave church.
