We have recently updated our database, our children's database, and now we will soon be rolling out OneBody - an all church digital directory. If you create a profile with OneBody, you will be able to add your family's picture, update any contact info, as well as gain access to other's contact info. You are in charge of the privacy settings on your profile! OneBody is very similar to social media, like Facebook, but only our church members and regular attenders have access to it! Your email must be in our database to get access to this site, so please update your email by
clicking here.
In a few weeks, we will let you know how you can gain access to this useful tool!
