Realm Login

Grace Church has moved to a new kind of church record keeping solution called RealmÂź. Not only will this improve work life for our ministry staff, it will make it easier for parishioners to connect with each other, keep up with whatâs going on, and grow as a connected faith community.
WHAT IS REALM? REALM IS A REAL MINISTRY TOOL.
Realm is an online ministry tool designed for real time connection. It helps Grace Church connect with you and you connect with Grace. If you want a way to stay connected with fellow parishioners throughout the week, youâll love it.
WHY USE REALM? REALM STRENGTHENS CHURCH CONNECTIONS
Being the church doesnât just happen at the church. Realm helps us serve you better and leads Grace well between Sundays. Everyone can be connected from anywhere at any time, right from our computers or mobile devices. It engages everyone in the life of our church by supporting the healthy relationships essential to Graceâs mission. Weâll stay organized, and youâll stay informed about all of the opportunities for fellowship, formation, and service. When we share life together, we will grow together.
WHAT ABOUT MY PRIVACY? REALM IS SAFE, PRIVATE, AND SECURE.
Your privacy is one of our greatest concerns. Realm is only made up of the people at Grace, itâs not like a social network thatâs open to everyone. Realm keeps your data safe and gives you control over what information you share and who can see it. Only members of our parish family have access to this tool.
Your information is your information. You have complete control over who can see your contact and personal information.
- Contact information is never public or searchable on the Internet. Any information you elect to make visible to your church family is always protected behind a login.
- Authorized staff will always have access to your profile information.
- You and certain authorized staff may update your profile information. In some cases, your group leader may update your contact information if you have made it visible to group leaders.
- For safety reasons, sharing contact and personal information for children under 18 is limited. Parents determine whether or not to display their childâs name in the church directory.
- Children under 13 may not participate and will not be able to sign in.
WHAT ABOUT GIVING? REALM GIVES YOU CONTROL OVER YOUR GIVING.
Giving should be easy, and Realm 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.
HOW DO I START? FOLLOW A FEW SIMPLE STEPS.
If you would like to receive an email inviting you to Realm contact Betsy Lauber with your full name, preferred email address AND phone number for each family member requesting a login.An email will be sent to you.
Your Realm Profile allows you to manage your personal information and who is allowed to see it, view the parish directory, control your giving, and keep in touch with the groups that matter to you. While creating a login allows you to have access to all these great features, it is not mandatory. Your contact information will appear just as it would in a parish directory.
Only members of our parish have access to this tool. If you would like to learn more, please contact Betsy Lauber in the church office.
