My Ward FamilyYour ward’s information stays with your ward.
We built this the way we’d want our own family’s information handled. Quietly, carefully, and only for the people who need it.
What you can count on
Private for each ward
Each ward has its own site. Nothing is shared between wards, and nothing is public unless you choose it, like the music page.
Passkey sign-in
Sign in with your phone’s face or fingerprint unlock. No passwords to forget or share.
Right info, right calling
The bishopric sees the bishopric tools. Each leader sees only what their calling needs, and nothing else.
Only who needs it
Member information stays private and secure, with the people who need it. Phone numbers, for example, are shown only to schedulers.
Access follows the calling
The bishop decides who gets in. Each leader sees the parts their calling needs, and the most sensitive lists stay with the bishop.
| Information | Who can see it |
|---|---|
| This Sunday, sacrament meeting, speakers | The bishopric and the people they add |
| Callings in progress | The bishopric and executive secretary |
| Temple recommend and bishop request lists | Only the bishop and the executive secretary |
| Interview times | The people who schedule them. An assistant executive secretary sees a name and a time, never the reason. |
| Phone numbers | Only the people who schedule appointments |
| Organization areas in Ward Hub | That organization’s leaders and the bishopric |
| Hymn board | Your music team, by a simple link, if you choose to share it |
Each ward can adjust roles under People & roles.
Private, and only where it’s needed
Member information stays private and secure, with the people who need it. The site shows ages, not birth dates, and it never shows emails or addresses. Phone numbers are visible only to the people who schedule appointments.
What we keep
Only what helps your leaders plan.
- Names and the organizations people belong to
- Callings, programs, speaker plans and notes your leaders write
- Ages rather than birth dates, where age matters
- The roles you give each leader, so they see the right things
What we never do
Some lines we don’t cross.
- Share one ward’s information with another ward
- Show emails or addresses
- Show ads or sell your data
- Change your member list without the bishop’s approval
Privacy policy, in plain words
Who runs My Ward Family
My Ward Family is an independent tool built and run by a ward member. It is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Where your information lives
Each ward’s information is kept in its own space on secure cloud servers. It is sent over encrypted connections and is only reachable after a leader signs in.
How you sign in
Leaders sign in with a passkey, which uses the face or fingerprint unlock already on their phone or computer. We never see or store a password.
Your member list
The bishop brings in the ward list or adds people by hand, and approves every change before it is saved. Leaders see only the parts their calling needs.
If you stop using it
If a trial or plan ends, your ward keeps its information and the free tools keep working. A ward can ask to have its information removed.
