Configuring myEADVENTIST for Your Church
The pastor or church clerk of each church can enable the myEADVENTIST app and choose the optional features on the "Settings" tab of the Church Admin screen.
Optional features
Church Directory
This enables the "People" section of the app, which is an online church directory. It allows members to look up names and contact info for other members. This online church directory uses the same member privacy settings as the printed Church Directory. For example, the following are NOT displayed:
- confidential addresses
- unlisted phones
- unlisted mobile phones
- unlisted email
- families with "Include in directory" unchecked
- mobile phone and email for children
Profile Update
Each member can view their membership record in the "Profile" section of the app. This option allows the member to update many of the fields in their Profile. The "Primary contact" and "Spouse" can also see the Profiles for any other people in the Family. This option allows them to update the other Profiles in their Family, as well. The Profile Changes screen allows the church clerk to monitor these changes easily.
Inviting members
Click the "To invite" link to see the members and nonmember that have email addresses. Select the people to invite and click the "Invite selected" button.
Customize the Invitation email
Tailor the invitation email for your church by clicking the "Customize" link. The first paragraph and the closing line can be customized.
Each invitation is valid for 72 hours (3 days), then expires. Any member with an expired invitation can easily be re-invited.
Members can also be invited (or re-invited) individually on the Person screen.
