Ministries — Create & Manage

Ministries are the teams people serve on (Ushers, Worship, Kids, Media, and so on). They drive scheduling, leader access, and the ministry directory. This section explains how ministries work in the portal and how leaders and admins manage them.

Where ministries live

There are two related admin pages, grouped under Ministries in the admin sidebar:

  • Ministries — the directory of teams, their leaders, and their campus.
  • Groups & Ministries — the assignment view: who belongs to each ministry

and what group role they hold (Member, Teacher, Leader).

Viewing ministries

Open Ministries from the top navigation (or the admin sidebar). Each ministry card shows its name, campus, and current leaders. Selecting a ministry opens its dashboard with the members, leaders, and recent schedule activity for that team.

  • Use the campus selector in the top bar to focus on one campus. Choosing

All campuses shows every ministry across locations.

  • A ministry page at /ministry/{name} (for example /ministry/ushers) is a

friendly shortcut to the same dashboard.

Creating and editing a ministry

Ministries are created and configured by a portal-wide admin.

  1. Open the Ministries admin area.
  2. Add the ministry with its name and campus.
  3. Save. The ministry now appears in the directory and can receive members,

leaders, and schedules.

Campuses come from the Campuses admin page (under Organization), so make sure the campus exists first.

Members, leaders, and roles

On Groups & Ministries you manage who is on each team and their group role:

  • Member — the default standing for anyone on the team.
  • Teacher / Leader — tags that mark elevated standing. Leaders are

surfaced on the ministry page and can be granted scheduling access.

Leaders are filtered by campus, so a leader assigned to the Scarborough campus is listed only under that campus's view.

See Roles, Leaders & Members for the full walkthrough of assigning roles and granting a leader scheduling access.

Ministries and scheduling

Once a ministry has members, its Schedule Editor lets a leader build the serving rotation for upcoming dates. Assignments made there show up on:

  • each person's My Schedule,
  • the Calendar (as assignment items),
  • and the ministry dashboard.

Campus filtering

Everything ministry-related respects the campus selector:

  • A specific campus shows only that campus's ministries, leaders, and people.
  • All campuses aggregates across locations.

If a leader or member seems to be "missing," confirm the campus selector isn't pinned to a single campus.
