Put this Sunday together

The Sunday page keeps everything for one Sunday in one place. Each part saves on its own, and a checklist at the top shows what is done and what is left.

Before you start

• You need a staff role. The secretary (or whatever your church calls the office role) and the webmaster see every part of the page. The leadership team (or whatever your church calls it) sees announcements and attendance & offering.
• Have the printed bulletin, or its PDF, nearby.

Steps

1. Open Administration → Sunday. The coming Sunday is already chosen. To work on a different week, pick it from the Sunday list.
2. Look over the checklist. A ✓ means done, ○ means still to do, and ◷ means later (like attendance before church has happened). Tap any item to jump to its part of the page.
3. Under Bulletin PDF, choose the PDF and tap Upload PDF. See Publish the weekly bulletin for more.
4. Fill in Message (speaker, title and passage) and Morning service, then tap Save in each part. The message shows on members’ home page.
5. Fill in Evening or special service only if there is one that Sunday.
6. Fill in Servants (greeters, hosts, hostess, cleaning) and tap Save. Below it you’ll see who is on the serving schedules that week.
7. Under Announcements, add anything extra from the bulletin. Choose how long to show it under Show it for. It shows from Sunday morning unless you tick Show it right away instead of Sunday morning. Tap Add announcement.
8. If your church uses them, fill in Family of the Week and Missionary Spotlight.
9. Sunday school & livestream shows whether the lesson and the livestream link are set, with links to change them.
10. After church, fill in After church: attendance & offering and tap Save. The Offering breakdown (optional) lets you add the regular, building fund, alms and other amounts. Members see these figures the following week.

Attendance & offering history at the bottom lists past Sundays. Tap a date to open one.

If something goes wrong

• “Attendance & offering for … aren’t entered yet.” Tap Enter them to open last Sunday and fill them in.
• “Note: the breakdown adds up to …” The parts don’t match the total. The figures are saved, but check them and save again.
• “That Sunday has passed.” You can’t add a bulletin announcement to a past Sunday. Choose a later Sunday, or use Administration → Church announcements.
• “Couldn’t save.” Check your connection and tap Save again.
• A part of the page is missing. Your staff role may not include it. Ask the webmaster. See Staff roles.
