Announcements
Keep your congregation informed — effortlessly
Push notifications, email blasts, and in-app announcements from one screen. Stop wondering if your message got through and start communicating with confidence.
Why church announcements get missed
The problem isn't your congregation — it's the tools.
Bulletin announcements vanish after Sunday
There's no way to reach members who were absent. By Monday the announcement is forgotten and the people who needed it most never saw it.
Email blasts go to spam
Low open rates leave leaders guessing who actually read the message. Important updates get buried alongside promotions and junk mail.
No follow-up, no accountability
You have no idea who actually saw the message. Without delivery tracking, you're left hoping the right people got the right information.
Built for how churches actually communicate
Every feature solves a real communication problem congregations face every week.
Instant alerts that land on every member's phone
Send push notifications directly to your members' devices. Whether it's a weather cancellation or a last-minute room change, your message arrives in seconds — not days.
Branded email blasts to groups or the whole congregation
Compose polished email announcements and send them to specific groups or everyone at once. No third-party email service needed — it's built right into ChurchNET.
Write Friday, send Saturday evening
Write Sunday's reminder on Friday and schedule it for Saturday evening. Batch your communication work into one sitting and let ChurchNET handle the timing.
See who received, opened, and engaged
Per-recipient status shows who received and opened every announcement. Campaign history lets you review past messages and follow up with anyone who was missed.
