Confirm Your Information on Church Center
LaSalle is moving our online church database & directory this summer and we need a few minutes of your time to confirm your information. This shift in platforms will assist and empower the coming years of ministry at LSC!
Our new system, Church Center, offers all the features we’ve appreciated on Breeze – online giving, a digital directory, dynamic communication avenues – alongside a host of new features that will streamline our internal staff processes, improve communication with volunteers, and more that will save LSC time and money in the process.
If you’re a member at LaSalle, attend services regularly, or receive our weekly newsletter, we have already moved over your information into Church Center from Breeze. Please follow the instructions below to confirm we’ve moved all your information into Church Center correctly. The whole process should take five to ten minutes.
Connect to Church Center:
1. Log in to Church Center. Head to lasallestreetchurch.churchcenter.com, or download the free Church Center app from the Apple App Store or Google Play for Android. Begin to log in using your phone number or the email address where you receive LSC communication, like this newsletter. After entering that information, Church Center will send your phone or email a two-factor authentication code, to make sure your account is claimed and secure.
2. Check that your contact & personal information is up to date. Once you’re logged in, head to your Profile & Settings to confirm your contact information is correct. You may see multiple email addresses or phone numbers listed you’ve previously used in connection to LaSalle – please remove old contact information you no longer use and add new contact information if you’d like.
3. Confirm you are linked to your entire household. Church Center groups families together in ‘households’ – if you attend LaSalle with a spouse, partner, or kids, check to see that they’re listed in your household. If something seems incorrect or missing, reach out to Lucas at lsweitzer@lasallestreetchurch.org -- only staff can edit / create households.
4. Set up a recurring or one-time donation and cancel any recurring gifts on Breeze. Church Center will be replacing our previous online giving platform on Breeze. From your Church Center account, tap or click on ‘Give'. Enter the amount of your current Breeze recurring gift, then tap 'Next'. Select a fund to give to, your desired recurring gift frequency, and under "Payment Method" select 'Add a new payment method'. Church Center accepts banking information, credit cards, and Apple Pay. We recommend you use your banking information (bank account & routing number) when setting up a new gift, as this saves the church money on credit card processing fees. Regardless of your payment method, you will also be given the option to cover the fee in addition to your gift.
When you have completed the set up for your recurring gift in Church Center cancel the gift by logging in to Breeze at https://lasallestreetchurch.breezechms.com then clicking "Give Now" in the top bar. Click "Recurring Gifts" in the sidebar, or from the dashboard, select "Manage Recurring Giving." Click "change" next to the recurring gift you wish to update, then click "Stop Recurring Gift" in the bottom left corner. Click "OK" to confirm cancellation of the recurring gift. You can contact Katie, Finances & Operations Assistant, at kkeilman@lasallestreetchurch.org or 312.573.8823 if you need help with transferring over your giving!
After you've canceled your donation in Breeze and set it up in Church Center, you're good to go! The church staff will take care of closing down Breeze entirely once everyone's information has been confirmed.
