Create Children's Service Schedules
The next step is to define the schedules for your activity. You need a schedule for each time this activity meets. In this sample, there are three service times available on Sunday mornings: 9:00 a.m., 10:15 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.
To create the activity schedules:
- You should be looking at the Add/Edit Time Schedule form. If you are not, simply click Ministry > Activity/Room Setup > Schedules. Make sure the children's ministry is displayed in the ministry box at the top of the screen.
- Type Sunday 9:00 a.m. in the Activity time name field.
- Type a Start time by clicking the calendar icon and selecting a Sunday in the past or future. type 9:00 in the start time field.
- Type an End time by clicking the calendar icon and selecting the same Sunday you chose for the Start time. You will take care of extending the service times in a future step. Type 10:00 in the end time field.
- Click Create new activity time. The new schedule appears in the activity schedule grid at the bottom of the page.
