A statement from the Board of Directors
Church records were exported from our systems without the Board’s authorization. This page sets out what we found, what we have done, and where the matter now stands.

What the security log shows

All thirteen exports were made under the credentials assigned to pj@d2ic.org.
The Board of Directors did not authorize the removal of member, visitor, or donor data from church systems.

What information was involved
The exported lists held contact information for people connected to this church.
- Active family and household rosters
- Members who joined during 2025
- First-time visitors
- Parents of children ages 0–18, members and non-members
- A list of active givers, including street addresses
If you are on any of these lists, your contact information may have left our systems. The Board takes that seriously and is being guided by counsel on what follows.
The July 11 export is different in kind
Every other export captured attendance or contact information. This one filtered for active givers and required a street address on file.
A list of who gives to this church, paired with where they live, has no use in the ordinary work of ministry once someone has left it. That is why this export is being reported to you.
