What is Realm Connect?
Realm Connect is a real ministry tool.
Realm Connect is an online ministry tool designed for real-time connection. It helps our church connect with you and you connect with us. If you consider yourself part of our church family, you’ll love it. Realm Connect allows you to manage your personal information and who is allowed to see it, control your giving, and keep in touch with the groups that matter to you.
Why use Realm Connect?
Realm Connect strengthens church connections.
Being Emanuel doesn’t just happen at Emanuel. Realm Connect helps us serve you better and coordinates Emanuel between Sundays. Everyone can be connected from anywhere at any time, right from our mobile devices. It engages everyone in the life of Emanuel by supporting the healthy relationships essential to our mission. We’ll stay organized, and you’ll stay informed about all of the fellowship opportunities. When we share life together, we will grow together.
What about my privacy?
Realm Connect is safe, private, and secure.
Your privacy is one of our greatest concerns. Realm Connect is only made up of the people at Emanuel, it’s not like a social network that’s open to everyone. Realm Connect keeps your data safe and gives you control over what information you share and who can see it.
What about giving?
Realm Connect gives you control over your giving.
Giving should be easy, and Realm Connect places giving right in the palm of your hands. You may set up recurring gifts, view your giving history, and make changes at any time. Realm Connect automatically records all electronic gifts and adds them to your giving record making it easy for you to give, and easy for our bookkeeper to track.
