If you're anything like me, if you don't have something on your calendar, then you'll likely not be there. We all have very busy lives with very busy schedules to keep. One way I've found to help me deal with all of my appointments, meetings, and events is to use a calendar system that can subscribe to multiple calendars, from church, my wife, and my job. One great option we have is that the ThornCreek Online Community alllows us to subscribe to calendars as well.

By subscribing to your "My Calendar" in the online community, you can get all the events that are specific to the groups that you're a member of as well as all your Ministry Partner scheduling that you've accepted. Subscribing to the calendar is an easy process of copying the location and pasting it into your preferred calendar application.

1. Login to the TC Online Community.

2. From your home screen right click on the Subscribe link and select "Copy Link Address" (Chrome), "Copy Link Location" (Firefox), or "Copy Shortcut" (Internet Explorer).

3. Now you can go to your preferred calendar application and paste in this location to subscribe to the calendar. Below are links for some of the more popular calendars available.

Google Calendar

iCal

Windows Calendar (click "to subscribe to a calendar")

Microsoft Outlook

Depending on the calendar application it can take up to an hour for it to completely sync all the events. Now you can have all your church group events and schedules along with your existing calendars.
