Create a group

Do this when you need a new named list of members, such as a class, a team or the deacons. You can use groups to filter the Member Directory, to choose who a Calendar event is for, and to send messages.

Who can do this: You need Edit access to Member Groups.

1. Open Member Groups. On a computer, click Church Membership in the menu, then Member Groups. On a phone, tap More, then Church Membership, then Member Groups.
2. In the top right, click Create new group.
3. In Group name:, type the name.
4. In Badge Color, choose a color, or leave it as it is.
5. To find a member, type their name in Search member name….
6. Check the box next to each member you want in the group.
7. To make a member a leader, click the star in the Leader column on their row.
8. Click Submit.

You see “Member group created and members added successfully”.

Good to know

• The members you check show in the Selected Members box. On a phone, the box is below the form. To take a member out, click the X next to their name.
• The badge color is the color of the group’s tag on member profiles. The choices are None, Blue, Grey, Yellow, Green and Red.
• To choose who can send messages to the group, first create the group. Then see Choose who can send messages to a group.
• You can also add one person to a group from their profile. See Change a member’s profile.

If it does not work

• “Name is required”: Type a group name.
• The star does nothing: Check the member’s box first.
