Embed Your Google Calendar
If your parish uses Google Calendar to display events for members to view, admins can embed selected calendars in Parish Life.
CAUTION:
Members will be able to view the details of all public events on the selected calendars. They can also copy any public events to their Google Calendar.
Public events on your parish calendars are view-only; members will not be able to edit them.
Tip: Read more about how Google's public calendars work. For additional help with Google Calendar, see the Google Calendar Help.
