Life is busy, keeping up with everything is hard work!
We're making it easier. Our new up-to-date calendar will now have all events right at your finger tips. It even has "In His Service" so you know when you have nursery, church host, or children's church. Still think you'll have trouble remembering to check the website? No problem, you can now have your personal calendar automatically update with church events. We're using a Google calendar which is compatible with other Google calendars, iCalendar (iPhone & Mac), Outlook 2007, Thunderbird, and more. Check back here for a collection of instructions on how to add the calendar to your every day use! If you have a Google account and use the calendar, just add a friend's calendar and use
as the email address. If you already know how to subscribe to a calendar using the standard ics format, here's the address
Are you registered?
Register to receive updates and notifications. Emails/News updates are random. For conisistant updates, get subscribed to our calendar.
Why? If you use a daily calendar, you already know the value of the tool. You can add events, share, set reminders, etc. It's even more convenient when events are added for you. It's like having your own personal assistant. Open up your calendar of choice, and BAM, all events going on at the church are automatically added to your calendar. See what time an event starts, who has nursery, what's for supper Wed night; it's all there.
Connect Harmony Calendar to your Google Calendar
Follow these steps (after loging into your personal Google Calendar):
At the bottom of the calendar list on the left, click the Add down-arrow button and select Add by URL.
Enter this address (http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/bobby%40harmonybaptist.net/public/basic.ics) in the field provided.
Click Add.
Connect Harmony Calendar With Microsoft Calendar (comes standard with Vista)
Open Calendar
Goto the menu, choose Share > Subscribe
Paste this address in: http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/bobby%40harmonybaptist.net/public/basic.ics
Click next, (you'll be asked to set your update interval, daily should be sufficient).
Connect Harmony Calendar With Microsoft Outlook 2007 (not available with earlier versions)
Open Outlook
Goto Tools > Accounts > Internet Calendars Tab
Click New
Paste this address: http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/bobby%40harmonybaptist.net/public/basic.ics
Click Add
Type a name for the calendar (Harmony)
Click OK
Connect to Harmony Calendar With iCal (Mac)
Open iCal
Choose Calendar > Subscribe, from the menu
Paste this address: http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/bobby%40harmonybaptist.net/public/basic.ics
Click subscribe
To also sync your iPod/iPhone: Follow the instructions above first, open iTunes (with your iPhone/Pod connected) click on the device, then the Contact Tab. Make sure Calendars is checked to sync. I don't think it's available if you use Windows to sync your iPhone.
It is also available in many other applications like Mozilla Thunderbird, but I don't have any of them to test and write instructions. You can probably find instructions online. Just Google "connect to google calendar with X" where x is the name of your calendar application. The Harmony Calendar is in a standard format called ics. If your application supports this then you can connect.
