🌟 Welcome to The SMILE Team
The Heartbeat of Hospitality

 Before the first song is sung, before the first word is preached, there's a VIBE you can't ignore when you walk through the doors of Jones Chapel-Conroe.  It's warm.  It's inviting.  It's electric.  That's The SMILE Team.

This isn't just an usher ministry; it's the heartbeat of hospitality, the front line of faith, and the first touch of love when people enter the house of God.  Pastor Lenard Allen Jr. envisioned a culture shift, where the first people you see set the tone for worship, not just with a handshake, but with a genuine smile that makes you feel like family.

The SMILE Team Vibe – What's That?

It's more than a smile; it's a whole experience.  It's the warm embrace of home when you step into the sanctuary.  The energy makes first-time visitors feel welcome and long-time members feel appreciated.  This isn't a job, it's a calling.  The SMILE Team embodies the pillars of the church- Commitment, Communication, Integrity, Accountability, and Adaptability- by ensuring that no one ever feels like a stranger.

Meet the Leaders of the Vibe!

At the helm of this ministry is Dr. Mary Cue, a seasoned educator with over 25 years of experience in shaping young minds.  She knows the power of engagement, connection, and making people feel seen.  Her leadership ensures that the SMILE Team is not just welcoming people; it's impacting lives.

Right beside her is Vice President Jerome Harrell, who defined dedication and service; a true Jack-of-all-trades, Bro.  Harrell can build with his hands, lead with his heart, write with his mind, and still find time to serve.  His commitment to the SMILE Team ensures that every detail, every greeting, and every smile carries the love of Christ.

The SMILE Team (formerly known as the Usher Board) is more than just a ministry; it's the first VIBE you feel when you step into Jones Chapel-Conroe.  With the Change of Culture Vision, Pastor Lenard Allen Jr. made it clear: the first faces you see when you walk through the doors should reflect the heart of the house: joy, love, and a welcoming spirit.  That's why this isn't just an usher team; it's The SMILE Team; because before the Word is preached, before the worship begins, the atmosphere is set by a smile!

The SMILE Team Vibe

What is The SMILE Team Vibe? It's the feeling you get when you walk into a place and instantly know you belong.  It's warm, welcoming, and full of energy. It's about ensuring every newcomer or longtime member feels at home when they step inside Jones Chapel.  Without the SMILE Team, the vision fails before the service even begins.

This team doesn't just greet; they minister through hospitality.  They ensure that every person feels embraced by the love of Christ before they even take their seat.  They uphold the pillars of the church- Commitment, Communication, Integrity, Accountability, and Adaptability through serving with joy, leading with excellence, and making sure the house of God feels like home.

Meet the Leaders of the Vibe!

Dr. Mary Cue leads this incredible team; a true educator with over 25 years of teaching experience at the high school level.  She understands the power of connection, engagement, and creating a welcoming environment.  Her leadership ensures that the SMILE Team isn't just about greeting; it's about impacting lives from the first hello.

Vice President Jerome Harrell is serving alongside her, a man who embodies the heart of service.  When you think of a Jack-of-all-trades, Bro.  Harrell comes to mind.  He can perform miracles with his hands, balance a 9-5 job, write books, raise a family, and still make time to serve his church community.  His dedication to the vision and this ministry compliments the SMILE Team in ways beyond measure.
