Church management software, or ChMS, is a digital system that helps churches organize their people, events, and ministries more efficiently. Pushpay’s ChMS simplifies communication, automates processes like event registration and attendance tracking, and gives leaders insights into member engagement and giving patterns. It’s the right tool for connecting your church community and helping ministries thrive.
What specific products are included in Pushpay's church management systems?
Our comprehensive church management system includes several ways to engage congregants, all within one integrated platform. Foster connections both in church and online with digital kiosks, group messages, and people workflows. Between resource management, church communication tools, and custom workflow planning, you can encourage every congregation member to become—and stay—involved.
Who is responsible for church management?
Church management roles depend on the size of your religious organization. A small church might have a single church leader (such as a pastor) managing all tasks, while large churches often delegate these duties to a church administrator or a dedicated administrative team.
How do I know if our organization needs a church management solution?
If your church struggles with tracking new visitors, staff burnout, or complex administrative tasks, you and your church admin team could benefit from a church management solution. This church software can reduce manual effort and help your church staff focus on what matters most: building and sustaining relationships. It’s particularly helpful for mid-sized churches and larger organizations looking to grow their ministries.
How does Pushpay’s ChMS help my church manage people and ministries?
Pushpay’s church management software brings all your member data, volunteer schedules, and ministry workflows into one secure platform. You can easily track attendance, plan events, send follow-up messages, and organize small groups. With built-in forms and automated email and text communication, your leaders can reach the right people at the right time—without juggling multiple systems.
Can I track attendance and event participation in the ChMS?
Yes! Attendance tracking is one of the most valuable advantages of our ChMS. You can record attendance for individuals and families and follow-up with first-time guests or members who’ve been missing for a while. Plus, event engagement data helps your ministry teams plan better and connect more deeply with people who attend.
How does Pushpay’s ChMS support communication with members?
Pushpay’s communication tools make it easy to reach your people through email, push notifications, or text messages. You can segment your lists by ministry, event, or demographic to ensure your messages reach the right audience. Templates make it simple to send announcements, prayer requests, or ministry updates—all from inside your ChMS.
Can a church use Pushpay’s ChMS to manage registrations and forms?
Absolutely. With customizable digital forms, your church can handle event registration, volunteer sign-ups, or class enrollment—all without paper. You can register up to ten people per form, collect payments, and trigger automated follow-ups. This saves your staff time and keeps every response connected to the right member profile.
Does the ChMS make it easier for parents to check in their kids?
Yes—our digital check-in system creates a fast, secure experience for parents. You can set room capacities, print name tags and parent pickup labels, and send instant text updates. It’s one of the most appreciated features among families and volunteers alike.
How can church leaders manage their teams on the go?
The LEAD App allows pastors and ministry leaders to access member profiles, send quick messages, and view attendance and giving trends right from their mobile device. Whether you’re greeting new guests or planning events, you can stay connected with your people anytime, anywhere.
