How do I allow congregants to "Join a Team"?

Describes how to list positions so congregants can join a team.

You will need the Limited Write Groups permission to list a position for sign-up. You need it at one or more of the group's campuses.

You can list serving positions that people in your church or organization can sign up for themselves, such as greeter, bus driver, or another team role. When a position is listed, it appears on the Join a Team tab in the Serving area in the left-hand navigation menu, where congregants can sign up to join the group as part of that serving opportunity.


Listing a position so people can sign up

Positions are managed on each group. To make a position available for sign-up:

  1. Open the group, then select the Positions tab.

  2. Add a new position, or edit an existing one.

  3. Set the position's Listed option to Yes, then save.

How congregants join a team

Once a position is listed, people can sign up for it themselves:

  1. From the left-hand navigation, open Serving.

  2. Select the Join a Team tab.

  3. Review the available positions. Each one shows the Position, Group, Description, Campus, and Enrollment.

  4. Choose the 3-dots menu.

  5. Click Sign Up.

The list shows listed positions at every campus, whoever is signed in. Campus is only there to help people find positions near them.

Approving sign-ups

If the group is set to require approval, people who sign up must be approved by a group admin before they're added to the group and position. To review pending sign-ups, open the group and select the Signups tab. You can also review pending sign-ups across all of your groups from Groups > Signups.
