Marking the events in your calendar which are church services automatically creates a menu item in your app menu to show church services to your users.

Now that your calendar has been sync’d with your app in Step Two, all that is required is to now select which event(s) that are in you calendar are church services.

Watch the video for an overview of what needs to be achieved in this step, and then follow the step-by-step instructions below.

Before you start:

1. Ensure your calendar is connected to your app – see Step Two
2. Ensure you have made a recurring event in your calendar program, and this is sync’d with EzyStream.

Now identify the recurring event as a church service:

1. Login to the EzyStream Dashboard (admin.ezystream.com).
2. Click the ‘Cog’ icon next to your name in the top right of the screen.
3. Select ‘Community Features’
4. Select ‘Service Times and Locations’
5. ‘Toggle On’ the event(s) you’d like to have display on the Church Services page in your app.

1. If you use an ics calendar feed, you may experience trouble if you edit the name of your recurring event showing in church services. We recommend keeping the recurring name consistent.

The Baptist NZ comms team is able to help you configure your app to get the most out of it. You can give us a call, or email support here.

We suggest your app is configured to do at least the following:

• Send Push Notifications,
• Display events,
• Offer digital giving,
• Publish sermon media
• Publish weekly newsletters
• A full feature list is available here.

If you’re stuck getting these operating, please get in touch. We want your app to be an effective tool for your community.
