What is Church Life?
Church Life is an online tool that gives members of WHUMC the ability to access membership information online. Today you can see and edit your contact information, user settings and preferences; send group emails; and view or print a directory.
The desktop/tablet version allows you to send emails to Groups (Sunday School classes, committees and other groups) of which you are a member. Watch to send a group email below.
You can view the members of Groups to which you belong in either the mobile or desktop/tablet version. The desktop/tablet version also allows you to print Group rosters.
