With email, Church Center announcements, and text messages, Lists is a communication hub for your Church. However, we know it’s often a challenge to reach exactly the right audience with Lists. In the past, you were required to send a message to everyone on the list with no ability to include or exclude specific people.
To give you more flexibility, we’ve introduced the ability to select profiles on a list to communicate with. This is handy when you know particular people might be on vacation and want to exclude them, or if you’re planning a surprise for someone and don’t want them to receive the same messages as everyone else.
To use this feature, simply open up a Lists Results screen and start selecting profiles. Here are a few additional details:
When you send an email, Church Center announcement, or text message, it will only be delivered to the people you selected.
Bulk actions will also only apply to selected profiles.
If no profiles are selected, communications and bulk actions will continue to apply to the entire list, as they do now.
The Print and Export options apply to the entire list, so they are disabled when multi-selecting.
As always, we hope this has a real impact on your processes and makes communicating just a little bit easier.
