Setting Up Church Center on Your Computer

Welcome to our blog post on how to get set up on Church Center from your computer. Church Center is a powerful tool that allows you to stay connected with your church community and keep track of all the events and activities happening in one place. Whether you want to sign up for events, manage your volunteer schedules and requests, or find new friends in the digital directory, Church Center has got you covered.

However, we understand that not everyone wants to install another app on their phone or might not have access to a smartphone. This can make it challenging to stay in the loop about what’s happening at church or connect with other members of the congregation. That’s why we’ve put together these step-by-step instructions on how to get set up on Church Center from your computer at home.

In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the process of creating an account on Church Center, signing up for events, and accessing the digital directory, all from your computer. So, whether you’re a technophobe or simply prefer using your computer over your phone, we’ve got you covered. Let’s get started!

Click on “Log In” located in the upper right hand corner of the screen above, which will then take you to the following screen.
