St. Philip’s Online Membership Information
Pledge / Membership System
St. Philip’s uses an online system called Realm. This system allows us all to stay better connected within the church and you to update your personal information as needed. Some key features are:
Up-to-date Church Directory
Up to Date Giving / Pledge status
Online / Automatic electronic payments to the church
Server Scheduling (coming soon)
Group chat / Communication
Personal Control of Data for Privacy
Access to this system is controlled by invitation only, using an email address and a personal password. When invited, you will receive an invitation from the The Realm system from this address: notifications@onrealmmail.org. Please be sure emails from that address are not blocked by your email provider and / or a spam filter. If you have not received an email invitation please contact Scott Rullmann, Pledge Treasurer (srullmann@stphilipslaurel.org) and provide your name, address, phone number, and email address so that you can be invited. (In order to be invited, we must have your name, email address and either a phone number or your date of birth.)
On the left you will see a series of buttons which take you into Realm. They are:
Login To Realm: provides one-click access to Realm
Recurring Gifts: opens the section of Realm used to set up one-time or recurring donations. This is a great way to set up payments of one or both of your annual pledge(s)
With all the online giving options, you can opt to help the church offset the processing fees. For ACH (electronic check), there is a 1% fee and for credit/debit cards there is a 3% fee.
There is a Realm Connect app available for your smartphone. Download it from the Apple app store or on Google Play.
Thanks for the generous sharing of your treasure in the ministries of our Lord Jesus Christ!
