Add an event to the church calendar
When you create a group event, you can add it to the main church calendar to promote it to non-members or avoid conflicts and double bookings. Administrators or group leaders can submit a request form to have their event added to the church calendar.
The Calendar event will be connected to the group, and any group event details (date, time, location, etc.) will be automatically copied into the calendar request.
Tip
If you want your group leaders to fill out the event request form when they create events in Church Center, you can create a leader-only resource.
