Create Congregation

To use New World Scheduler, you must first either Create a Congregation, Open a Congregation or Import a Congregation.

New Congregation

At this time, New Congregations can only be created with NWS Desktop.

If you are the first person in your congregation to start using New World Scheduler and want to immediately get started with real data, you should Create a New Congregation.

  • Note: If another brother in your Congregation has already created a New World Scheduler Congregation, or you wish to open NWS on another device, you should Open Congregation.

To Create a New Congregation:

  1. Click the New Congregation button
  2. You will automatically be allocated a unqiue Congregation ID and can begin entering your data

Sample Congregation

If you are the first person in your congregation to start using New World Scheduler, and would like to see how New World Scheduler works, you could choose Sample Congregation. This will generate a Sample Congregation and allow you to explore New World Scheduler with randomly generated sample data.
