The daily anniversaries email is sent each morning to everyone in the directory, listing all the wedding anniversaries being celebrated that day. It encourages the whole congregation to acknowledge and celebrate couples in the church. It respects individual communications preferences — anyone who has opted out of emails will not receive it.
Go to Church Admin → Key Dates → Daily anniversaries email.

[first_name]— the recipient’s first name[last_name]— the recipient’s last name[anniversaries]— inserts an HTML table listing all of that day’s anniversaries. Place this in the message body where you want the list to appear.
Enabling the automation
Tick the Send email to people about anniversaries that day checkbox to enable the automation, then select the member types who should receive it. Click Save. The automation is scheduled to run from 6am the following morning and repeats daily. On days with no anniversaries, the email is not sent.
To disable it, untick the checkbox and save.
Prefer a combined email?
If you’d rather send a single daily email covering both birthdays and anniversaries together rather than two separate emails, see the Daily combined email tutorial instead.
