We never use your personal information for any marketing or profit-making purpose. Your information will be used only for the the GTSF goals and purposes by workers appointed by the GTSF Elders. For example, if a GTSF event changes at the last moment, a GTSF worker may use your personal information to contact you about how to handle the change in plans. As another example, if you are confined to your home due to illness, we may share you information with a fellow believer to bring you a hot meal and essential supplies. We do not sell or trade your personal information for any marketing purposes—we treat it as confidential.

GTSF may occasionally text or email you information about activities related to our congregation, such as the Biblical Feast Days. This information may occasionally include mentions of hotels, restaurants, Christian concerts, etc., which we believe to be of interest to you. We do not receive any money from these mentions and you are always free to make whatever arrangements best suit you. We never share your personal information with any of these vendors.

  • Email Addresses – used to return any email correspondence we receive, to send a weekly email with congregation announcements and a summary of the previous service, to send rare special purpose emails to notify brethren of things we believe will interest them.

  • Street and Mailing addresses – used for rare mail correspondence, to contact brethren when other contact methods fail, to inform them of nearby home Bible studies or other events of interest, for congregation workers to provide transportation to events when needed.

The above information is never sold and not shared without the individual’s permission. To find out what personally identifiable information we have about you, to correct it or to request that we no longer use it, please make your request to info@GraceAndTruthSabbathFellowship.org.
