How to set up an email mailing list

Your parish website comes with a built-in SUBSCRIBE feature. Parish members - or anyone interested in learning about our Catholic faith and/or your parish activities - can click the Subscribe button on the top part of your parish website and be included in the general parish email list. This email list is used by your website system to send the automated Friday Catechetical e-blasts.

However, we know there are situations when you would like to send emails to smaller parish groups. If you wish to create a special mailing list for small groups, ministries, councils, etc. in your parish, the following are the simple steps you need to follow:

Log in to http://pwadmin.parishworld.net

Go to Main Menu

Go to Email List Manager

Click Create Email List

And fill up the form: Internal Ref Name is your Email List Name. Add your emails to the Email Addresses – one email per line

And you’re done.

To create and send an email to this email list, the simple steps follow

Go to Main Menu

Go to Email announcements

Go to Create Email Announcements

Compose your email blast using the form.

In Recipients, click the email list(s) you would like your Email blast to go to.
Set the scheduled delivery date and time at the bottom of the form.

And you’re good to go.
