  1. Open the app and pick the parish you administer

    In the Thông Tin Công Giáo app, open the parish you were given rights for.

    You can only edit a parish you were approved to administer. A parish you merely follow has no admin tab.

    Still not working? Message the support team and attach a screenshot of what you see.

  2. Tap the Info tab

    On the parish page, choose the Info tab.

    No Info tab means the administrator rights have not been approved. Revisit the Register as a parish administrator guide.

  3. The admin page opens

    The app switches to dash.i-catholic.org, which shows the full parish record and lets you edit it.

    From here on you are in a browser (dash.i-catholic.org) — it is easier on a computer.

Setting mass times

Scroll down to the Mass Times section on the admin page.

Only two time slots for now

One for Sunday and one for weekdays (set through Monday). You cannot set a separate time for each day of the week.

  1. Find the Sunday row

    In the list of days, find Sunday — this is the Sunday mass time.

    I am stuck on this step

    Long list? Scroll down. The days run in order: Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and so on.

    Still not working? Message the support team and attach a screenshot of what you see.

  2. Click Start Time and pick the hour

    Click Start Time, choose the hour, then the minutes.

    I am stuck on this step

    The time picker is 24-hour. A 5 o’clock evening mass is 17:00, not 05:00.

    Still not working? Message the support team and attach a screenshot of what you see.

  4. Set the weekday time in the Monday row

    Same as above: click Start Time, choose hour and minutes.

    The Monday row stands for all weekdays, not only Monday.

  5. Click Update Church to save

    Scroll to the bottom and click Update Church. Without this, nothing is saved.

    An error on save usually means the connection. Try again; if it persists, send the support team a screenshot.

You are done when

  • The system shows a success message
  • Reopening the parish page in the app shows the new mass times

Something went wrong?

Saved, but the app still shows the old time

Devices need a moment to sync. Wait a few minutes, close the app and reopen it. Check on another phone as well.

We have several Sunday masses, for example 5am, 7am and 5pm

The system currently accepts one time per row. Put the other times in the parish description and email the support team to ask for the feature.

The fields are locked and I cannot edit

Your administrator rights are not approved yet, or you opened a different parish. Check the parish name on the admin page.
