Enable Group Communication
After communication is enabled at the ministry area level (Women's groups, Men's Groups, Children & Youth Ministries, etc.) a group leader can elect who can create posts, share photos, message people in the group, and make group events.
- Staff or administrators must enable group communication settings at the ministry area level.
You can select whether communication methods, such as creating a post or starting group chats, are available to no one, only group leaders, or anyone in the group.
Note: Groups inherit communication settings from the ministry area level. So, if you don't see a communication method available, this means it must first be enabled for the ministry area.
- In the top-left corner, click your site name then Connect. Then click Groups.
- Locate and open the group's page.
- Next to the group's name, click

- Click Group Settings.
- Under the Group Communication section, select the type of content participants and group leaders can create.
- Choose whether group chat is enabled or disabled.
- Click Save.
