If you have an email address on file with the church, you should have received an email message from us inviting you to join Realm, our online community.  Open the email and follow the instructions to create your password.  Then watch for a verification email, and follow the instructions to activate your profile.

If you do not receive an email invitation and know that you have a valid email address on file with the church, please check your spam/junk folder.  If the email invitation isn’t there, or if you haven’t given the church an email address, contact the office during business hours or sign up here.

After you have activated your profile and logged in, click on the arrow next to your name in the upper right corner of your profile screen.  Select “My Profile” to check the information about you and your privacy settings.  Click on “Edit Profile” to change your contact information.

To see your privacy settings, click on “Manage Privacy.”  We encourage everyone over 18 to choose “everyone in our church.”  This allows other Parkwood members to see your email, address, phone number, birthday, marital status, and the names of members of your household.  If you prefer to keep certain information private, you can choose one of the other options.

Parents: Privacy settings of children under 18 are set to “Only the Church Staff” and should not be changed.

Help others get to know you by adding a photo that shows your face clearly.  To upload a picture for your profile, click on the circle containing your initials.

Click on the choices in the left column to see news, your giving history, ministry groups that you belong to or may want to join, our church directory, and more!

After you have activated your profile, you can use Realm on your smartphone or tablet.  To download the app from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store, search for “Connect – Our Church Community” from ACS Technologies.
