Press Send in your messaging app to finish signing up. Opening this page or tapping a button does not enroll you. We will send an enrollment confirmation before any scheduling reminders begin.

If a button does not work or the draft is blank, text START to +1 (628) 250-3681. You can save that number as Sanctuary Scheduling.

Reply HELP for help or STOP to opt out at any time. Consent is optional and is not a condition of volunteering or receiving church services.

What to expect

  1. Sunday reminders start at 4 p.m. Pacific for the following two Sundays. Follow-on reminders stop at 8 p.m.
  2. For one pending role, reply YES to confirm that assignment or NO to ask a coordinator to follow up. A NO reply does not itself decline the assignment in PCO.
  3. For multiple roles on one Sunday, use the Planning Center link in the text to review each role there.
  4. Scheduling reminders only. No fundraising or marketing.

This optional program is for current adult volunteers. We do not use purchased lists.

SMS terms

By texting START to our volunteer scheduling number, you agree to receive recurring automated scheduling messages from Sanctuary Church SF. Consent is optional and is not a condition of volunteering or receiving church services.

Message frequency varies, generally no more than two reminders per pending assignment. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel and HELP for help. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

A YES reply may confirm the specific pending assignment described in the text in Planning Center Services. A NO reply notifies a coordinator and does not itself remove or decline the assignment.

Messages listing multiple roles direct you to Planning Center to respond to each role. YES or NO replies to those link messages do not change assignments. Reminder batches begin Sunday at 4 p.m. Pacific, with follow-on reminders before 8 p.m. Replies and opt-out requests are handled outside that sending window.

For help, email hello@sanctuarysf.com.
