Questions & Answers on the Parishioner Updating Process

What is Flocknote?


Flocknote is the software tool the parish uses for electronic mailing list - whole parish and ministry groups. It enables text messaging, email messages, and registrations.


What is changing in Flocknote?


Nativity's use of Flocknote is expanding. We will use it for sacramental records, donation history, and new (and existing) parishioner registration.


Do I need to do anything special in Flocknote?


Yes, we would like you to check your information to make sure we have the correct information for you and your family in Flocknote and update it. If you do nothing, then it will remain with whatever information we have for you.


What does this cost the parish?


The Diocese provides the subscription fee for Flocknote on behalf of the parish, so Nativity is not charged any additional fees to use the expanded services of Flocknote. This expanded, no-cost option has only become available to parishes in the past year.


Why is my information wrong in Flocknote?


We hope that this is not the case, however the merging process is imperfect, so the best we can do is to correct any errors going forward. And, we have both the archival record of the retired database and the clergy archival record (sacraments) to reconcile any errors.
