Setting Up Recurring Events

Many church activities happen on a regular schedule — Sunday services, weekly small groups, monthly prayer nights. Instead of creating a new event each time, set up a repeating schedule.

Before you begin

• You need the Admin or Staff role.

Step-by-step

1. Create a new event or edit an existing one. Follow the steps in Creating an Event or open an event's Settings tab.

2. Set the date and time. Choose the date of the first occurrence.

3. Turn on repeating. In the date and time section, select a repeating schedule:

   • Weekly — Repeats every 7 days on the same day of the week.
   • Biweekly — Repeats every 14 days.
   • Monthly — Repeats every 30 days.

4. Set an end date (optional). Choose when the repeating schedule should stop. If you leave this blank, the event repeats indefinitely.

5. Save or publish the event.

Good to know

• Recurring events show as a single entry in your event list, but each occurrence has its own date on the calendar.
• The Schedule tab becomes available for recurring events, letting you manage volunteer assignments for each date.
• To stop an event from repeating, edit it and remove the repeating schedule.
