PB UMC’s church directory uses an online service called Church Center. You can access the directory after you receive an invitation email. Scroll down for instructional videos and a PDF link. Click the Directory Help tab to the right if you need an invitation or have other questions. Finally, if you don’t use email, let the office know and we’ll add you a different way!
Getting Set Up

A note on Privacy and Options
PB UMC’s directory is only visible to invitees; it is not searchable on the Internet. Invitations are only sent to people who are directly affiliated with PB UMC.
Also, this is an “opt in” directory, meaning your directory entry is only visible to others if you want it to be, and you can choose which information you want to share (a photo that you upload, birthday, phone number, email, and address). You can make corrections to your own info to keep it up to date. Households can also upload a family photo and parents can opt in for their kids.
