Roles Overview

Every person who signs into Churchday has a role that determines what they can see and do. There are four roles, from most access to least.

The four roles

Admin

The highest level of access. Admins can do everything — manage events, people, email, settings, and other team members. Every church needs at least one admin.

Staff

Day-to-day managers. Staff can create events, manage people, send emails, and handle tags and groups. They cannot change organization settings or delete events.

Group Leader

View-and-assist access. Leaders can see events and people, check in attendees, and suggest or approve events. They cannot create events or send emails.

Member

Basic access. Members can view events and suggest new ones. They cannot see the people directory, email campaigns, or settings.

Visitors

People who are not signed in (visitors) cannot access the dashboard at all. They can only see public event pages and your church's public profile.

Good to know

  • Roles are assigned per person and can be changed at any time by an admin.
  • These roles are separate from group/team roles (like being a "Leader" within a specific small group).
