(collectively, the “Services”). 

By accessing our website or app, opting into our communications, or participating in our SERVE Teams, Small Groups, Events or Outreaches, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our Services.

  • Permitted Use: Our digital platforms are provided to share the Gospel, build community, and manage church administration. You agree to use them only for lawful, faith-based purposes. 
  • Intellectual Property: All sermons, livestream broadcasts, original music, graphics, articles, and logos are the property of the Church and are protected by copyright laws. You may stream, download, and share our media for personal, non-commercial use, but you may not sell or repurpose it without written permission.

By providing your contact information to the Church, you agree to receive communications from us. You can manage or revoke your consent at any time. 

  1. Email Communication Terms 
  • Consent & Subscription: By creating an account, filling out a connection card, or registering for an event, you agree to receive emails from the Church. These may include weekly newsletters, ministry updates, and giving receipts.
  • Frequency: We respect your inbox. Church-wide newsletters may be sent weekly, but the overall frequency will depend on the groups or SERVE teams you choose to join. ● How to Opt-Out (Unsubscribe): Every marketing email we send includes an “Unsubscribe” link in the footer. You can click that link at any time to remove yourself. ● Transactional Emails: Please note that even if you unsubscribe from informational newsletters, you may still receive automated transactional emails from us, such as event registration confirmations. 
  1. SMS and Text Messaging Terms 
  • Consent & Opt-In: By providing your mobile number and explicitly opting in, you consent to receive informational, event and emergency texts from us. Consent is completely voluntary and never a requirement for membership.

How to Get Help: If you have any questions, contact Manna Fayetteville directly at contact@manna.church and mention the specific Manna you visited or attend. 
  1. Ministries, Events, and Child Safety 

Participation in our physical and digital church communities comes with a shared responsibility to keep everyone safe. 

  • Child and Youth Safety: The safety of minors is our highest priority. Parents or legal guardians must register children for Manna Kids and comply with all check-in/check-out policies. The Church enforces strict SERVE Team screening and background checks in accordance with our Child Protection Policy and state laws. 
  • Event Registrations and Fees: Registration fees for conferences, camps, or trips are subject to the cancellation and refund policies for that event. Check with the event leader for more information. 
  • Code of Conduct: We expect all attendees and SERVE Team to treat one another with respect and kindness, creating a safe and welcoming environment across all church events and activities. 
  1. Media Release (Photography and Filming) 

We love sharing what God is doing in our community. Please be aware of how we handle media: 

  • Public Services: Our main worship services and large public events may be livestreamed, recorded, or photographed. By attending an in-person service, you

acknowledge that your image, likeness, or voice may appear in our online broadcasts, social media, or promotional materials. 

  • Opting Out: If you do not wish to be photographed or filmed, please notify a SERVE Team member before the service begins. 
  • Minors: We take extra care with children. We will not publish close-up, identifiable photos or videos of minors from Manna Kids environments without explicit parental consent. 
  • Safety Monitoring: Many of our Sites include video and/or audio recording in our Manna Kids classrooms, as well as video and/or audio monitoring throughout the Site for security purposes. By coming onto a Manna Church property, you consent to this recording. 
  1. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability 
  • “As-Is” Service: Our digital Services are provided on an “as-is” basis. We cannot guarantee that our website or app will never experience downtime or technical glitches. ● Pastoral Guidance Disclaimer: The spiritual encouragement, prayer, and pastoral guidance offered by our staff or SERVE Team are intended for spiritual growth and support. It is not a substitute for professional legal, medical, or mental health counseling. 
  • Limitation: To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Church, its trustees, officers, and employees shall not be liable for any damages arising out of your participation in our digital or physical services. 
  1. Changes to These Terms
