Paul founded the church in Galatia. Soon after he had left the area to carry on his missionary work, the churches were led astray by people promoting another gospel. This other gospel centred around Judaism and mosiac law. Paul saw this as a different gospel than that of Jesus. St Paul then in his letters to the churches of Galatia challenged their choice to continue to use this other gospel in an effort to bring them back to the churches he had established initially. He greeted them differently to help express his view on this other gospel.
Paul calls himself an apostle like he does in other openings in his letters, but he emphasizes and asserts his divinely given authority to speak to the problem confronting the Galatian churches. He then continues in verse 3 with his common blessing of 'Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,' If one reads all the openings of all the letters of Paul and the others, they all mention the Father and the Son (Lord) but not anyone else. Readers should wonder why.
To my knowledge there are no hand signals. I've grown up in Baptist churches. The ushers just do stuff like collect offering/tithe, greet people, hand out bulletins, and such.
The Church of Christ Matthew 16:13-19 Romans 16:16 the church of christ greet you plural
People from Brooklyn greet each other in the same way others do in the different cities. In general, they will greet each other by saying "hello" or "hi".
Yes, it is proper to greet someone during any type of meetings. Try different greetings in different situations, but a good "How do you do?" is a very resourceful greeting.

Protestant churches vary a great deal. Some are simple and unadorned, while others are elaborate. I can only speak for American churches. Typically, there are a couple rows of pews, or more depending upon the size of the church. At the front of the church is where the pastor will preach and lead the service. This section is usually raised. There will be one or more podiums from which the preacher and others leading the service will speak and read the Bible. Most churches will have an altar at the front, before the raised platform. This altar may be a simple rail for kneeling. There may be a place for the choir in the front near the podium, or it may be off to one side. If the church allows instrumental music, there is typically an organ or piano in the church. The church's walls may contain pictures of a religious nature, or a cross, and stained glass windows are typical. In most churches, there is a baptismal of some sort. In Baptist churches, and other churches which believe in immersion, the baptismal is large enough for immersion, and is a bit like a large bathtub with steps leading down into it. It may be behind a wall, or set into the wall. In churches which do not stress full immersion, the baptismal may be a basin on a stand, where water is placed for the purpose of pouring or sprinkling. In the backs of the pews, there are places where books may be held. In these will be hymn books and/or Bibles. There is occasionally also a place made in the backs of the pews where tiny communion cups may be held. In some churches, the communion is done by passing around bread and wine (or grape juice), and so it is taken right there in the pew. In other churches, the communion is offered at the front of the church, and the people leave the pews and go up to take the communion. If the church is very large, there may be a balcony for more seating. Besides the main section of the church where the worship service is conducted, there are usually other rooms in the church. A vestibule is the place where one enters, and it usually contains a place for people to hang coats (or that may be in a separate room). There is usually a table with pamphlets and religious publications, such as the Upper Room - a daily devotional. There may be a guest book. Some churches have people at the entrance to greet you when you enter on Sundays. (or Saturdays if it is a Sabbatarian church). There will be rooms for Sunday School and/or Bible Study. There may be several of these for different age groups. There may be a kitchen, a room for fellowship gatherings, and of course, bathrooms. The pastor will most likely have an office in the church as well.
You would greet him the same way you would greet any friend you meet. Priests are human beings, too, and appreciate a warm handshake or even a Christian hug along with a friendly greeting. Be genuine and don't put on a false show.
The duties of a church administrator are usually to help with behind the scenes in a church. They may do payroll, count the offering, send out letters and email and greet visitors. They also provide a buffer between the pastors and the congregation.
