Manage household members

In this section:

If one of your family members gets a new phone number, your child changes schools, or someone new joins your household, update that information in Church Center to keep your church up to date!

You can also manage your household's serving schedules and respond to requests for household members in Church Center.

View household members

Add a household member

Remove a household member

If you remove a household member, their profile still exists in the church database, but they won't be able to see your household when they log in.

Update information for household members

Any adult in a household can update profile information for household members, unless a household member has administrator access in Planning Center, in which case they must update their own information.

You cannot edit the names or fields of household members that have a 🔒 lock icon. If any of this information needs to be updated, contact your church administrator so they can make the changes for you.

Manage your household's schedules

If you're part of a household with other volunteers and have permission to manage someone's schedule within your household (adults automatically have permission for minors in their household), you can do so directly in Church Center.

  1. Select your profile picture or initials at the top of the app.

  2. Select My information and settings.

  3. Select Household scheduling.

  4. Toggle on the Include household members in my schedule option.

  5. Set who can manage your schedule, request permission to manage others, or opt in to be cc'ed in email communications for minors in your household.

Your Me and My Schedule pages will now show volunteer requests, signup opportunities, and confirmed shifts for people in your household whose schedule you can manage, each with a profile picture or initials so you know who's who.
