Turning numbers into names

Faith Central does the remembering, so you can do the shepherding.

Here’s what changes for you, your staff and your volunteers, one Sunday problem at a time. Every screen on this page works in the live demo.

Who’s here, and who isn’t

Notice who’s missing while you can still do something about it.

A clipboard count tells you how many came. It doesn’t tell you the Hendersons have missed three weeks. Faith Central shows you both, while the service is still going, with one tap per person for your greeters.

First-time guests

Every first-time guest hears from you by Tuesday.

Right now a guest card can sit in a stack for days. With Faith Central, the family who planned a visit on your website is in your directory before they arrive. They get a welcome text, a thank-you card is ready to print, and a call lands on someone’s list. Try it: fill in the form on the phone, then press Sunday.

Kids

Every parent knows their child only goes home with them.

Parents check their kids in from the app or the station. Name tags print on the spot, and pickup needs the four-letter code on the parent’s phone, so your volunteers never have to guess. Try it: tap Check in 2 kids, then scan at the pickup station.

In the hallway

Any tablet becomes a check-in station your volunteers can run.

Greeters find a family by name or phone number, labels print on a label printer, and new families are added right there. Nothing to install, and nothing for you to fix on a Sunday morning.

Your voice

Reach your people in your own voice.

Texts from a random number feel like spam. Texts from their pastor feel like care. Send to a group from your own number, and replies come back to you and land on each person’s record. Anyone who texts STOP is never messaged again. Try it: send the message, then reply on the phone.

Follow-up

Follow-up happens, even on your busiest week.

Good intentions don’t send the Tuesday text. When someone joins a Bible study or misses three Sundays, Faith Central takes the next step for you: it assigns a care contact, sends a text from your line, adds them to the roster and reminds someone to call. Press either button to watch it.

Care between Sundays

Know who needs a visit, a call or a prayer this week.

Hospital stays, bereavement, the homebound and prayer requests sent from the app land in one list, with the people nobody has contacted in 30 days at the top. Section leaders see their own people, so care doesn’t depend on you remembering everyone.

Monday morning

Walk into staff meeting with answers, not arguments.

When every report counts members differently, the meeting goes to arguing about numbers. Faith Central gives each person one stage, from first-time guest to leading, and every report reads the same definition. So Monday is about who to call, not whose spreadsheet is right. Tap a stage to see who’s in it.

Giving

Stop stuffing envelopes in January.

Giving stays in SecureGive. Faith Central mirrors it as it happens, so you see totals, funds and first-time givers without another login, and finance can keep the who-gave list to themselves. At year end, members download their own statements from the app. Press A gift comes in, then open a statement on the phone.

Giving stays in SecureGive, online or in the lobby. Faith Central mirrors it so pastors see trends and first-time givers without touching a bank record, and members fetch their own statements instead of calling the office.

Events

Fill the retreat without a round of phone calls.

Families register and pay from the app without retyping an address you already have. You see seats, payments and who still owes in one place, instead of a spreadsheet someone has to keep up. Register for the retreat on the phone.

Serving

Find the empty spot before Sunday, not during it.

Volunteers accept or decline their serving requests from their phone. You see open spots, people who haven’t confirmed and conflicts for the week, and a run sheet for Sunday morning.

Your team

Your volunteers learn it once and use it everywhere.

The office computer, the greeter’s iPad and your phone show the same Faith Central, so nobody learns three systems. Each person sees only what their role needs.
