A Message From Our Board President

Who has access to your passwords?

When I first started ministry, security meant keeping the file cabinet locked. Now security is much more complicated. We have different online accounts, passwords, and websites that we need to oversee. Each month I will give a tip that might help you make sure your church’s business accounts are secure.

Tip #1 - Who has the Passwords?

Youth And Family Ministry
