For two decades Park Street Church has utilized “MyPSC” (ACS Technologies) as its membership database. You may best recognize it as “www.parkstreet.org/giveonline.” Modern member databases have so much more to offer in terms of connecting members with ministers, organizing volunteers, family ministry check-in and other features, as well as updated online giving options.

In the next few weeks, Park Street will be moving to a new ACS Technologies database product called “Realm.” Once we have made the transition, you will receive an invitation to create an account in Realm. Please use the link in that email and follow the steps to create a password. Once you’re in Realm, take a look around! You’ll see a Giving option, located in the left menu, which will allow you to view your giving history and scheduled donations. Any donations you have already scheduled will continue to process as you planned.

Contact the church office at [email protected] if you have any questions!

As we are now half way through the year, please remember that there still are considerable gaps relative to where we want to be this time of year as the M&O budget planned a 14% increase in gifts, and the Missions budget planned an 8% increase in gifts. To help close the gaps over the summer both M&O and Missions giving would need to be 20% greater each week than it has been over the past few months. When making your gifts, please remember that all gifts to Missions must be specifically identified as Missions gifts. We praise God for your faithful giving through the first six months of 2020, and want you to know that staff are carefully managing expenses. In addition, we want you to know that the Emergency Relief Fund and the Deacons Fund balances are both robust.

Virtual and At-Home Worshiping Communities are similar to small groups but are focused around Sunday practices of worship, fellowship, and prayer.

• 6–15 people streaming the 11:00 AM or 4:00 PM service;
• Virtual gatherings using Zoom or if preferred backyard at-home meetings throughout the summer;
• Resources for groups will make participation simple;
  Existing small groups or friendship groups are welcome to sign up together;
• Individuals not already part of an existing group will be placed into groups based on an option of personal preferences.

The Lord wants all of us to worship together, minimizing isolation, and to be organized for mission. Sunday Worship Communities help us become more nimble and able to navigate the uncertain length of the pandemic. We can’t wait to be worshiping all together in a jam-packed sanctuary, but since that time is a ways off, we invite you to register yourself as an individual or family, or as an existing small group or friendship group.

Lexington Christian Academy (LCA) has put together an engaging program designed to help students get ready for school in the fall. LCA has been working to make remote learning engaging, so these courses won’t be boring!
