Ministries

Ministries keep each team's work separate. Events, Follow Up boards, attendance groupings, groups and volunteer teams all belong to a ministry. People only see the ministries they've been added to (Administrators see all of them).

Go to your avatar > Workspace Settings > Ministries. Only Administrators can change ministries.

Add a ministry

1. Click Add Ministry.
2. Type a Ministry Name, like "Kids Ministry".
3. Pick a Color and an Icon.
4. Click Create.

Nobody is added to a new ministry automatically. Go to Users and add the people who should see it.

Edit a ministry

Click the pencil next to it. Besides the name, color and icon, you can set Email Overrides for this ministry:

• Sender Name replaces your church name on emails this ministry sends. Families see it as "Your Name via Ministry Toolkit".
• Reply-To Email sends replies to this ministry's inbox instead of the workspace default.

Leave them blank to use the settings under Email.

Services

Services are the regular gatherings a ministry runs, like "Middle School Wednesday" or "Sunday 9am". Volunteer positions and small groups are organized under them.

1. Click the calendar icon next to a ministry.
2. Click Add Service.
3. Fill in the Name, and optionally the Day, Time and Location.
4. Click Create.

Use the arrows to change the order. Deleting a service also deletes the volunteer areas and positions under it. Groups under it aren't deleted; they just lose their service.

Delete a ministry

Click the trash icon and confirm. Events and boards in that ministry are unlinked, not deleted. You can't delete your last ministry.

Using ministries day to day
