Especially when planning and organizing your events, such as church services or prayer evenings, it is very important that employees can communicate with each other and reliably receive important information about the event. <\/p>\n\n<p>In the Events module, we have therefore built in two functions for you that you can use to promote communication about your events.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">E-mail<\/h2>\n\n<p>You can have ChurchTools send automatic e-mails so that people in your congregation are informed when they are requested or assigned to a role, for example.<br\/>To do this, you must activate the function in the <em>System settings<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\"

event and click on the <em>envelope<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"340\" height=\"426\"
