Church Center is our online and smartphone portal for Bethel Christian Assembly Church family. With Church Center, we have a place to connect with one another through our online directory, access calendar for upcoming events and other features.

Church Directory

Updating Your and Your Family’s Directory Settings
  1. In order to access the Directory feature of Church Center, you must first be invited by one of the administrators. (The directory is setup as a closed group. This is to ensure that the info is only accessible within our church family)
    1. Invitations are only sent through email, and only through the primary email address we have on file for you.
    2. Make sure to update your primary email address and your family members’ primary email addresses using the steps above.
  2. Once you receive an invite to the Bethel Christian Assembly Directory, click on the link in the email and it will ask you to log into Church Center. Use the login you set up when you downloaded the app.
  3. To choose what information to share on the church directory, go to Church Center, click on your icon or photo, and click on “Profile”.
  4. In the Profile page, click on “My Directory Settings”. If you do not see this option, you have not yet been invited to the church directory. Please contact the church admin (bethelipcaz@gmail.com) to request an invitation.
  5. There are options under “Directory Settings” for both your personal information and your household members’ information (if you are part of a household). Check each box to allow the directory to include that piece of information.
