Online updating for The Official Catholic Directory 2021 edition has begun. This year’s updates are due by Friday, November 13.
You should have received a notification email from NPR Direct with instructions on submitting updates using the Catholic directory’s online portal. Please see the attachment for additional information from The Official Catholic Directory. If you did not receive the login email, please contact The Official Catholic Directory at ocdedits@nrpdirect.com.
Some general notes on submissions:
- Parishes should update their annual sacramental data.
- No entity should delete a sub-organization and then re-add it. Deleting a sub-organization should only happen if it is to be removed from the directory.
- Parishes should not add groups, activities or cemeteries, as sub-organizations. We do not list youth activities, adult religious education, meetings or groups in the directory.
- For the parishes that have been incorporated, the following positions will be listed and should be completed as outlined below:
- Pastor also named as President,
- Deacon Dorner as Secretary and
- Pastor/other named person as Treasurer
- On the USCCB Certification tab, most entities will select the top option indicating no change. Parishes that relocated should check the box about a change in primary address.
If you have questions on parish legal incorporation information, please contact Ian Trutt at ITrutt@archatl.com.
