• If you sign up with the email you use to log in to the Parochial Report filing system, your account will be automatically approved, and you can start entering information immediately.
• If you use a different email, it will need manual approval to confirm your affiliation with the parish UEID. This process can take up to 2 business days.

How many users can I have on my account?

• There’s no limit—your parish can have as many users as needed.
• To add another user, simply have them sign up with their email address.
  • If they use the email associated with the Parochial Report filing system, their account will be automatically approved.
  • If they use a different email, it will require manual approval (usually up to 2 business days) to confirm affiliation with your parish.

I serve multiple parishes. Can I use one login?

• Yes! Like the Parochial Report system, you can associate one login with multiple UEIDs.
• Simply select your first UEID when logging in, then start typing the next one. You can add as many UEIDs as needed.

I see a UEID for my diocese—should I use that?

• No need. Diocesan UEIDs are for diocesan staff to record worship at diocesan facilities and events.
• Each parish UEID is unique, so once you provide it, the system automatically knows your diocese.

What’s the difference between “regular” and “special” services?

• Regular: Any scheduled worship service that happens weekly or monthly. This can include Saturday or Sunday worship, as well as weekday services. Think of services you’d list on a more permanent sign outside your church.
• Special: Weddings, funerals, confirmations, or other one-time services announced separately.

Does this replace the paper register?

• It can, but some parishes may continue using the paper book for backup.
• You can print your spreadsheet if needed or as a monthly backup.
• The online system is secure and backed up daily.

Can I pre-fill frequent services?

• Yes! You can create a pre-fill service with all fields filled except for the date and attendance numbers.
• To do this, go to the Stats page, scroll to your entries, and click “Save as Prefill.”

• On the Stats page, scroll to “REGISTER SERVICES FOR 2026”
• Click “Remove Prefill” for the service you no longer need.
• Once added, your prefill option will appear in the dropdown menu when registering services.

How do I make an edit to an entry?

• Go to the Stats page.
• Scroll to the bottom until you see Register Services Entries.
• Locate the entry you want to update.
• Click Edit Entry next to that record.
• Make your changes.

How do I delete an entry?

• Go to the Stats page.
• Scroll to Register Services Entries and locate the entry you want to remove.
• Click Edit Entry for that record.
• Scroll to the bottom of the page.
• Click Delete Entry (in red) in the bottom-right corner.

What counts as an online service?

• An online service is one where the entire congregation participates online.

  • If you use Zoom or another platform where participants can be counted, enter that number in “Number Present.”
  • If the service is streamed or posted on social media:
    • Record Total Live Viewership
    • Include views within 7 days under Unique Non-Live Views

  Tip:
  If a service is both streamed live and posted for later viewing, you may need to enter numbers in both Total Live Viewership and Unique Non-Live Views to capture everyone who participated.

How the Parish Register updates your Parochial Report

• The Parish Register syncs with the Parochial Report, which your congregation completes each year. Information entered in the Parish Register—such as services held and attendance—is used to help calculate certain totals in the report.
• Each year, between January 1 and March 1, the system gathers the information entered in the Parish Register and updates the related totals in the Parochial Report.
• This synchronization runs automatically on weekday mornings (Monday through Friday).
• You can log into the Parochial Report site during this period to view the calculated totals based on the information entered in your Parish Register.

Things to know

• Changes made in the Parish Register may not appear in the Parochial Report immediately. Updates will appear after the next scheduled synchronization.
• Only certain sections of the Parochial Report use information from the Parish Register. Be sure to review the full report and complete any remaining sections before submitting it.
• You can start your Parochial Report even if the Parish Register is not complete, as long as the report site is open (January 1–March 1).
• Totals from the Parish Register will continue to update automatically as new entries are synced during this period.
