Guests in Faith Formation

v1.8.2

Families who are not registered parishioners can take part in Faith Formation. A parent or guardian gives permission on paper or online.

New

  • Guests in Faith Formation. A family that is not registered at the parish can bring a child to Faith Formation as a guest. Staff add the family at the Welcome Table with a parent's name and cell phone. The family does not need a parish registration.
  • Guardian permission. A guest child joins a class only after a parent or guardian gives permission. Staff record a paper form at the Welcome Table, or send the parent a link to sign online with a one-time code.
  • Permission on the Welcome Table. Each guest child on the Welcome Table shows "Permission missing" or "Permission recorded". Staff record permission or send the link from the same row, then check the child in.
  • Guest list for staff. The Faith Formation admin console lists the guest families and shows the permission state of each child.
  • Sacraments for guests. Staff record a guest child's First Communion or Reconciliation. The record stays with the child for later years.

Fixed

  • A guardian cell phone at the Welcome Table must have 10 digits, or stay blank.
  • When staff save a past Mass date in sacrament preparation, the child now shows the sacrament as received.
