Share a church event

Open Church events from Church home. Owners and editors can add a name, description, location, start and end times, access notes and an optional external HTTPS registration link. Use the event time zone; existing events do not move if church settings change. Save a draft or preview and confirm publication. Events appear on the church events page while their end time has not passed. The first version supports individual events, not recurring schedules or attendee collection. For a cancelled gathering, preview and confirm cancellation so visitors see the change. Calendar downloads are snapshots, not subscriptions, and will not receive later updates automatically. Owners can download events data separately; settings backups and portable homepage exports do not include it, and event import is not available yet.

1. 1 Enter the event details and check the time zone. During the repeated autumn hour, choose first or second occurrence under Clocks changing; skipped spring times are rejected.
2. 2 Preview, check the dates and location, then confirm publication. Drafts are not public. A draft church website still requires staff sign-in.
3. 3 Use cancellation for an event that will no longer take place. Tell attendees separately; ChapelOS does not send notifications. Keep a separate events data download.
