Event Management

Church events without the spreadsheet chaos

Registration forms, check-in, reminders, and analytics — all in one place. Stop juggling Google Forms, paper lists, and email chains.

Why church event planning breaks down

The problem isn't your volunteers — it's the tools.

Sign-up sheets disappear

Paper sign-ups get lost, passed around, or left in the wrong classroom. By Wednesday no one knows who signed up for what — and the coordinator is starting over.

Check-in is chaos at the door

Volunteers flip through printed lists while a line of families waits. Multi-day events like VBS mean doing it all again tomorrow with the same disorganized stack.

No one remembers to RSVP

A bulletin announcement two weeks out isn’t enough. Without reminders, half the congregation forgets to register — and you’re guessing headcounts the night before.

Everything you need to run a church event

From registration to check-in to follow-up — one tool handles the whole flow.

Custom Registration
Custom Registration

Forms that fit every event

Build registration forms with nine field types — text, checkboxes, dropdowns, dates, and more. Mark fields as required or optional, add help text, and enable auto-fill from member profiles so returning members register in seconds.

Check-In
Check-In

Smooth check-in, every day

Search by name, tap to check in, and move on. For multi-day events, select the specific day and track attendance separately — all from a phone or tablet at the door.

Reminders
Reminders

Nobody forgets this time

Configure email and SMS reminders a set number of days before the event. Registrants receive an automatic confirmation when they sign up. SMS consent is tracked per member for compliance.

Analytics
Analytics

Know your numbers before the event

See registration counts, participant breakdowns, check-in rates, and cancellations at a glance. View response breakdowns for every custom question and export the full attendee list as CSV.

Member Directory

Auto-fill registration fields from member profiles so returning members sign up in seconds.

Attendance Tracking
