Commitment Reservations

Can adorers make commitment reservations for not-yet-available adoration hours?

When your parish wants to expand adoration to additional days and hours, it's helpful to gather interest from adorers for planning purposes.

We Adore Him does not currently have an option for adorers to make an adoration commitment "reservation" for these hours. We will consider adding a feature like this if there is enough interest (let us know).

However, administrators and captains can create commitments on closed hours. This provides a creative workaround.

As adorers convey their interest for additional days or hours, you can create commitments on their behalf. They are now signed up for those hours (though they are not expected to attend adoration). You'll see their names on the schedule, and can plan accordingly.

When you are ready to officially offer adoration for those hours:

  1. Edit the hours and change them from Closed to Open weekly.
  2. Send a message to the affected adorers to let them know that adoration is now available.

Or, if you decide not to offer adoration for those hours, you can bulk delete the commitments.

Additional Considerations

  • Use an online survey tool to gather interest from your adorers on which days or hours they would be willing to commit to. Popular tools are Survey Monkey and Google Forms.
  • Add something to the Sitewide Message instructing adorers how to sign up for these hours (with an online survey tool, or by contacting an adoration coordinator).
