Getting Started with Church Connect


Church Connect is a church website, church app, and member portal that's built into ChurchTrac. But how do you begin making an awesome and functional resource for your members and guests?

Below is how to access this feature, navigate the menus, and begin setting it up. Once you finish setting it up, you can begin creating cards to add content.

Accessing Church Connect


To access Church Connect, select the Church Connect icon on the ChurchTrac Toolbar.

Church Connect URL and QR Code


You can customize the sub-domain of your Connect URL to make it easier for you and your people to access (and remember) it. To customize your URL, select "customize your link" above the URL.

Add Content To Your Connect App


And now for the most important part....you will create one or more cards for your Connect site, which will allow your members, donors, and guests to interact with your page. You can create announcements to convey important information, display events for registration, forms to collect information (like prayer requests or guest forms) and much more!
