The Global Address List (GAL) contains the names and e-mail addresses of everyone that has an account in The City Mission. The GAL can be accessed from Outlook and can also be viewed from the Outlook Web App.

The GAL will automatically update once a day, however, you may want to manually synchronize your computer’s locally cached version of the GAL if you believe you are seeing any incorrect or outdated information.
