WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Realm serves as our online church directory, and we ask for your help in updating and correcting any inaccuracies in our database. Our goal is to have the most updated and accurate information possible. Once we have updated the information we will be able to have printed copies available to those that request one.

On Sunday, September 28th, printed sample copies of our current online directory were made available on tables in the Loggia. If you haven't done so yet, we encourage you to visit the tables, locate your profile, and verify that the information is correct. If you are unable to do this on Sunday, feel free to stop by the Belser Building at your convenience over the next couple of weeks. If all details are accurate, please initial beside your name. If corrections are necessary, kindly update the information and initial the changes. If your name has been left out of the directory, please write your name where it should belong with your correct information and we will make sure it gets put into the database. Questions? contact Kara at (843)723-0603.
