When you click each date field a calendar will pop up. Use the right and left arrows on the top of the calendar to switch between months. You can also use the drop down menus to select the month. DO NOT SELECT THE YEAR. The year is for our system to know when to stop sending e-reminders.

Make sure you are on the correct month and click the date, the calendar will disappear. Each reminder entry brings up a different calendar.

The holiday reminder is set to Dec 1. Easter's date is set by an online calendar. Each are activated with just a Yes or a No.

2. Gets changes made to previously created services. Including service picture, service name, and functionality changes (i.e. returning guest, contributions).

3. Pushes offline entries to the Dashboard.

   *Note: You must be connected to either Wi-Fi or cellular data to refresh.
