MY OWN CHURCH FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is my Giving History confidential in My Own Church?
Yes. Your account permits you to see the giving history only for your family and the family members in your household. You cannot see anyone else’s giving history, and they cannot see yours.
My Own Church isn’t working in my web browser. What’s the trouble?
For security reasons, My Own Church works in Internet Explorer 8.0+, Firefox 3.0+, Safari 3.0+ and Chrome 2.0+.
I recently created an Account…why can’t I log in?
If your account is new (i.e., created within the last day or two), your parish staff may not yet have authorized your username and password yet. Please be patient.
I forgot my Account login…what do I do?
Visit the login site and click the Lost Password link, located just below the Username and Password fields. Enter your information to receive a reminder at the authenticated email address you provided when you first set up your account.
I got a “Registration Failed” message … Why?
The system could not find your email address in the church database. We’re sorry about that. Just contact the parish office and we’ll help get you set up (and, if needed, registered).
I made some changes to my information. Why aren’t they showing up in My Own Church?
All updates must be reviewed by our parish staff. Once we accept your changes, you’ll see them in My Own Church, and your record in our main church database will be updated for all church ministries.
Do I ever need to use My Own Church again or is this a one-time deal?
Please save your account information. Your giving history is handy to have online, and if you change addresses, get a new email, or change phone numbers, we’d like you to log in and update your record. Plus, we’ll have new and convenient ways to help keep you connected with parish life through the My Own Church portal.
