Directory and Privacy
As part of our commitment to caring for one another and respecting everyone’s privacy, we want to share an important update about our church directory. We can no longer hand out printed church directories or share contact information unless the individual has given consent. This helps ensure that each person has control over what information is shared and with whom. To make this easy, Realm allows you to manage your own directory privacy settings. You can choose what contact information is visible and who within the church can see it. We encourage everyone to take a few minutes to review their settings. If you need help accessing Realm or reconfiguring your settings, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re happy to help.
