Planning Center, now with Facebook Integration

We are very excited to introduce our newest feature, Facebook integration. For the past several months we have been learning about how to develop on top of the Facebook platform and thinking about the best way to do this integration. I am really happy with what we have come up with and I hope this helps your volunteers become more informed about when they will be serving. Let me go ahead and walk you through the integration process:

Install Planning Center Facebook Application

1.) Install the Planning Center Online Facebook App: You can install this by going to http://apps.facebook.com/planningcenter/ . We will shortly be adding a link to this from the Planning Center Online Dashboard & Schedule pages. Make sure you click “Allow”.

Facebook Planning Center Linking

2.) Enter In Your Login Information: Enter in your e-mail address and password and we will link all accounts with that information to your Facebook Account.

Planning Center Schedule On Facebook

3.) View Your Schedule: This will show you all the dates you have accepted or have pending plus all the times you are scheduled for. You can also accept and decline from within Facebook.

Facebook Planning Center Notifications

4.) Receive Facebook Notifications: Whenever you are scheduled to serve, a notification will appear to alert you.

Neighborhood Block Party

Hello Everyone!
This weekend is our first Neighborhood Block Party at Willamette.

It begins at 12:30 PM and concludes at 3:30 PM. And You're invited.

We will have great food, music and activities including: rock wall, bike safety clinic, bike stunt demonstration, I.D. tags for kids, face painting, raffles, and more. Paul's Bicycle Way of Life is even coming to help with repairs on your bike.

So here's a few details.
1. PARKING: The front parking lot on the campus will be roped off so you will need to park in the back.
2. DRESS: come casual and ready to enjoy the day.
3. BIKES: If you're up for it. Ride your bike to church or make sure you at least bring your kid's bikes for the parade and maybe even a tune-up.
4. BUDGET: We did receive a great response on Sunday for the budget. If you are able to help us complete this fund that'd be great. If you are able to offer your lunch money, that would do it! (I feel like a school yard bully.... "give us your lunch money!")
5. THERE YOU ARE! - remember this is the perspective we want to have as we welcome guests to our campus. Let's make people feel welcome, loved and valued!

Looking forward to sunday!
