Once you sign on with MinistryPresence, you will discover that our solution is much more than a website. Here are just a few ways MinistryPrseence supports your efforts.

Training and Support
Whether you are a beginner getting your site ready to launch or the more advanced user taking advantage of the community building tools, MinistryPresence offers a range of training and support opportunities, so you can get help how you want it, when you want it. These services are offered as part of your monthly subscription fee at no additional cost to you.

In your website administration area, you will find an interactive online questions and answers feature and downloadable users guides. You will receive the SiteAdvisor, a newsletter that gives useful information to realize the full power of MinistryPresence. Plus, you will have access to our Customer Service Center where the account management team assigned to your church can provide one-on-one assistance.

MinistryPresence also offers Web cast training sessions. Each takes approximately one hour and will require the use of a computer connected to the Internet and an open phone line. You can register for any of several sessions in your administrative area.

Begin with the introductory training where you will learn the basics of customizing your site. Once you've completed this session you will be able to add photos to your Photo Library and the necessary steps you need to take to get your site ready to launch. Advanced training allows you to customize contact forms, send out e-mail newsletters and set up discussion forums.

From time to time, MinistryPresence offers in-market Users Group Meetings. These allow you to meet face-to-face with MinistryPresence representatives to discover ways to make effective use of your website.

E-mail Spam & Virus Protection
If you've received one e-mail, you've received one hundred. And most of them you could live without. Yet e-mail has become a major form of communication for a number of congregations. That's why MinistryPresence comes with a spam and anti-virus package that blocks unwanted e-mails and e-mail borne viruses from reaching your church's computers.

When you sign on for this service, you will immediately see an 80% reduction in spam and with some initial fine-tuning the catch rate averages over 95%. And the service will eventually detect fewer than 1 in 100,000 e-mails that are legitimate e-mails marked as spam.

Maybe you have already made an investment to protect your church. However, the MinistryPresence system stops e-mail and e-mail borne viruses at the server, protecting all of your workstations, not just the computers where software is installed.

Managed right from your e-mail program, the MinistryPresence system makes spam management a breeze with personalized Web-based preferences for each user.

• Catch over 95% of unwanted e-mail and e-mail borne viruses before they enter your church
• Protect all of your computers from spam and viruses without installing additional software*
• Establish, monitor and enforce appropriate e-mail usage in your church
• Increase productivity of your staff by over 50%
• Reduce the risk of lawsuits from an unacceptable environment caused by offensive e-mail content
• Receive automatic hourly updates to defend against the latest spam, spamming techniques and viruses
• Customize preferences and privileges for spam handling methods
• Detect viruses in compressed messages

Add the e-mail and virus service to your MinistryPresence website solution by selecting the option on the Getting Started Form. If you already own MinistryPresence and want to add this service, log into your Administration Area to find out more information.

*Because the e-mail borne virus detection is guaranteed to 99%, we recommend installing anti-virus software on all computers in your system to further protect your company
