SMG Ministries & Organizations to receive smgparish.org email!
The parish office has finally completed its server upgrade that incorporates the Microsoft Exchange mail server. This exciting opportunity could not be done previously due to the limitations of the previous mail server provider.
To that end and to eliminate the constant changes to ministry / organization contacts that are due to leadership changes in the ministries / organization or personal mail changes the new email address will be distributed and posted in the coming weeks. The parish office lists, the smgparish.org web and the SMG directory will reflect the permanent mail address. The mail addresses have been assigned and are being reviewed and will shortly be incorporated into the mail server.
During the month of June a letter will go out to each ministry leader / coordinator with their assigned email address and password. We are aware that a few of the current ministry leaders / coordinators (and potentially future ones) do not have a computer and the ministry leader / coordinator will have the ability to assign the responsibility for monitoring the email to someone within their ministry.
The letter will explain how to access the mail and the basic guidelines to follow for response to email distributed to the mailbox.
Once the new email has been distributed both the web and next directory release will incorporate the new address.
This will make it easier for Father Jim, Father Mike, the parish office staff, the stewardship committee, etc. to distribute to ministries without having to search for individual email addresses that may have changed with an individual or due to leadership changes.
The Welcoming Committee will use this means exclusively to contact ministries with new potential members from new parishioners that have joined the parish and expressed an interest in that ministry.
Thank you!
Beatitude (Stewardship) Committee
