Each week during the announcements at church, they encourage everyone to register themselves on the church website. I thought it was just a way to keep the church up to date with your email and other pertinent information. The thing is though, when I signed up and logged in for the first time, I was kinda surprised to see a lot of my information already in the system. Not only did they already have my most current mailing address on file, but they also had a record of how much I had tithed this year already. They also knew my wife's name and our wedding anniversary (okay, not so surprising since we got married there), but they also had a record of what ministries we attended, and how we were serving in the church.

Granted, none of this is a secret to the church. We've given them this information at some point or another. It was just a little surprising to see it all organized in one place at one time. I will have to say it is kinda convenient. I was able to see that during the month of my wedding I forgot to tithe to the church.

It's been a slow blogging week, I had to write about something.

cool stuff. i mean, the big brother aspect is kind of scary, but i'm all for being able to access the stuff online, provided it's secure =)

The mathguard security question below looks like 3 divided by 0. How do I enter in N/A?
