FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
October 17, 2009
Greetings everyone!
Here is important information regarding a new system that is replacing the weekly GBSPAM emails and the Google group GBSPAM website that are going to be shut down at the end of this month!
If you want to remain “connected” to GBSPAM and the many offerings & blessings that our group has entertained over the months and years, I implore you to read everything below and get plugged in!
What does this mean to the GBSPAM singles group?
- Unifyer is the system that is replacing the weekly GBSPAM event emails sent out and replacing the Google group GBSPAM website. The last weekly GBSPAM singles event email(s) will be sent the last week of October, 2009. The Google Group GBSPAM site will also be "sunsetted" the last week of October and no more updates will be posted there, either.
- Nolonger am I (Debra Van Asten) able to enter in email addresses from individuals. People will need to "register" in order to receive and send GBSPAM event information.
- Many of you should have received an email already from Green Bay Community Church regarding Unifyer. Follow the instructions sent to you to create your user id and password.
- If you did not receive an email from GBCC, you will need to click on the link below to get registered, create a user id and password to gain access.
- Once you are within the Unifyer system, save it as a “Favorite” in Windows Explorer. Also, when within the system, click on the Groups tab, find the group name "GBSPAM Singles Activity Ministry", and move it to one of your open spaces to the left, so this will always be one of your "groups" each time you log in!
- I will continue to post some of the regular events that I attend on a consistent basis (i.e. bowling & Pathway’s FNF) within Unifyer. And I will continue to host other upcoming events.
- It will no longer be necessary nor expected for GBSPAMers to be sending me any information on events you want “advertised” and you are willing to host. YOU will have the great ability to post these yourselves for people to participate in! Guidelines to follow in getting the word out, is simply to supply the event name and/or short description, date/time, location, and your contact information within the "GBSPAM Singles Activity Ministry" group. It's that easy, so please don't expect me to do this for you anymore! (If a person can email, they can easily "post" a message! It's super simple!)
- If you know of anyone who wants to get “connected” to GBSPAM or other Community groups, inform them that they will need to register by going to the www.gbcommunitychurch.com website and click on the Unifyer icon, also.
Here are the details and questions you may have about this system:
What is Unifyer?
Unifyer is a communication tool that Community is now using so the ministries and groups you're interested in can communicate directly with you - and you with them. After signing up, you can pick and choose the information you want to receive which means you don't have to muddle through a lot of unwanted information.
Who should sign up?
Everyone connected to Community. Unifyer is only available to people connected to Green Bay Community Church Ministries and groups you are involved with. It is not open to the general public.
Why should I sign up for Unifier?
Unifyer is the tool we will be using to communicate the bulk of information between the church groups and you, and you and the church groups. You can join groups you'd like information from and subscribe to news feeds. You can begin new groups and communicate publicly or privately with the people in your group.
What happens after sign in?
Create your personal profile and upload a picture, if you have one! Click on the NEWS button to see what's happening in the church, watch the videos on how to use Unifyer, mark the GBSPAM Singles Activity Ministry as one of your groups, add others if you'd like, and start having fun! Play around - you can't hurt anything!
Need more information?
If you need more information go to www.gbcommunitychurch.com, click on Unifyer, and open The Cynics Guide to Unifyer.
