Ushers have a number of hand and body positions to communicate the need for fans, programs, available seats, prayer, scripture reading, etc. The number of hand and body positions may differ by denomination and from church to church. In the Baptist church a common body position for ushers during prayer, used to block entry into the sanctuary are arms crossed across the chest. Also, ushers do not typically close their eyes during prayer as they are to always be alert to the needs of the congregation. Hope that helps.

Church ushers use hand signals to communicate with each other during preaching or singing so they do not interrupt. Each church publishes its own guide of hand signals for their ushers to follow, so not all usher hand signals are the same.
