St. Mark's Weekly E-blast

We gather, connect, and serve so all may experience the love of Christ.


You may remember that when we merged our campuses, we also merged the Church Management Software we use. If you are still unfamiliar with Breeze, the article below gives a lot of information!


Breeze is a Breeze!


What? What’s Breeze?

Breeze CHMS is our Church Management System, where we keep information on contact info, volunteering, giving, events, sign ups, and so much more. Think of Breeze as your online directory for connecting with other St. Markians! 


Let’s walk through logging in together.

Breeze can be accessed through their website or their app.

Email info@umcstmarks.org and ask to have an invitation link sent to you to create an account or visit umcstmarks.breezechms.com/login/create and use your name/email address to request an invitation to log in.

Either way, an email invitation will be sent to you to, “Create Your St. Marks United Methodist Account” with a link to set up your ID and password. Remember to create a strong and unique password! This will connect you to your profile in the Breeze database. If you forget your password, you can reset it. You’ll just need access to the email account you used when you created your log in.


Website

You can access the Breeze website from https://umcstmarks.breezechms.com/ 


Breeze App

If you are looking for a Breezy way to access the Breeze database on the go, check out our Breeze app. With the app, you will see similar functionality to the web-based version. Only now, at the ease of your fingertips.

Because you can utilize this app remotely, it allows for you to quickly look up members and visitors within your database to access their contact information. The app allows you to easily give online, access your giving history and Manage Recurring Giving.

Breeze offers an app for iOS and Android! Here’s where you can access either of these apps: https://app.breezechms.com/app


Login Information

The first time you use the Breeze app you will be prompted to enter our subdomain, umcstmarks. After entering your correct subdomain (umcstmarks), you will be prompted to enter your login information. After logging in the first time, you'll be able to access https://umcstmarks.breezechms.com/ directly.

 

Once you log in, you’ll have access to these areas:

 

***Only congregants who have an account and are logged in will be able to access our online church database.***
