Online Church Directory
The church directory is where church attenders and members can access other attender and member information such as mailing addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses. You will now access the online church directory from Church Center.
Note: There are two possible reasons you may not see someone in the church directory. Either they are not an attender/member or they have chosen to keep their information private.

How to set up your profile in the directory
A directory is a private place for the people in your church to share their contact information. If you've been invited to your church's directory, you can see the directory and share your information as well as the information of your household members. Only your church's Administrators can set up the directory, set the parameters of the contact information, and invite people.
