When you need to work with families—finding young households for a parenting ministry, marking a household inactive when they move, or adding a pastoral note—you've been stuck working profile by profile. There's been no way to see all your households together or to update an entire family at once. Today’s release solves both problems:
The new view shows all households with active members, with member avatars so you can see who's in each household at a glance.
You can find the households you need with filtering and sorting:
Filter by number of adults or children (perfect for young families ministries or finding empty nesters)
Search by household name or profile name
Sort by name, member counts, or when households were last updated
You can also take actions on the entire household at once. Click on the actions dropdown on any household to perform bulk actions like marking all members inactive, adding notes to everyone, or updating custom fields across all members.
These actions are also available for households via the profile:
No more adding the same note five times or clicking through multiple profiles to mark a family inactive. Update the household once, and you're done!
Got other ideas on how to improve household management? We’d love to hear from you.
