View and Print Easy Lists

Easy Lists can answer questions such as "Who has a birthday this month?" or "Which individuals attended Baptism Preparation last Wednesday?" You can customize the fields you want to view in the list, place them in the order you want, and print the lists.

You can also create a letter, label, and/or envelope to send to everyone in your Easy List. For example, you can send a birthday letter for a particular month or a thank you letter to everyone who served in a particular ministry.
