Dear Grace Community,

Many of you have already discovered the new online Grace Parishioner Directory! We launched this database last fall and encourage everyone to check it out! We ESPECIALLY invite and request everyone to upload photos. Being able to see one another in the Directory meets every one of our core principles:

  • Inclusion - There is a real sense of belonging when we can peruse the pictures of our fellow Gracies.
  • Service - What a service to one another to be able to put names and faces together.
  • Discovery - “OH…so that’s who that is!”
  • Gratitude - Seeing all those faces can’t help but make one feel grateful for this community.

The first step is to log into the directory, either through the Grace Website, or by logging in here:

To add your photo:

  1. Click on the picture icon at the top and follow the instructions.
  2. Click Choose File and browse your own photos to find an image you want to use in the directory.
  3. If necessary, adjust or move the area that will be displayed. You can also rotate or zoom the image by using the sliders on left and right.
  4. Click Save.
  5. To add a family picture, click the second button.
  6. You can click on family members to the right of the screen and add pictures for them as well.

Image Size

The image needs to be less than 10 MB. Ideally, the photo you choose to upload should be 172 x 172 pixels. If the image is larger, you should zoom out until it fits in the dashed-line center square. Otherwise, the website will delete the remainder. If the image is smaller, it will not be automatically enlarged to fit the space. You can zoom in, but might lose resolution. Most photo or graphics programs can determine and alter the size of an image.

In addition to uploading profile pictures, we all now have the ability to browse other people in the directory, edit our own data, make payments and donations to Grace, register for events, and communicate within specific groups. Check it out! And while you are there, please make any needed additions/corrections, add family members and birthdays, and update contact information.

If you have trouble logging in or finding your profile, contact Krista Webb at . If you are a Ministry Leader, look forward to seminars this spring showing you how you can use the database to enhance your ministry.
