CC ChurchConnect

Church management software for churches in the United States

Membership, attendance, follow-up and communications in one place — for one congregation, a church with several campuses, or a denomination with districts and conferences under it.

Zip codes, and more than one campus

Forms say Zip Code, and members are grouped by it, so a small group meets people who live nearby rather than people who landed next to each other in a spreadsheet.

A church with several campuses keeps a roster and a serving schedule for each one while leadership sees the whole church. Campus leaders see their campus. Nobody has to maintain the same person in two places, and nobody has to pretend a multi-site church is one building.

Your denomination, under your own names

Conference, presbytery, district, parish, region, network — you name the levels and decide how many there are, instead of bending a denomination into software written for a single auditorium.

Each leader is scoped to their own part of the structure and nobody sees sideways into another. A national or general office sees all of it, and an org-unit comparison report puts every congregation beside every other one when somebody asks how the year went.

English and Spanish in the same church

A congregation with a Spanish-language service does not need a second system, a second database, or a volunteer translating announcements on Saturday night.

Each member picks their language, and everything the church sends follows it — English, Spanish, French or German — so the same announcement reaches the English service in English and the Spanish service in Spanish, sent once.

First-time guests, and what happens next

A guest is only worth the connection card if somebody follows up, and that is usually where it breaks. Guests go into a pipeline with who invited them, what they were interested in, the person assigned to them, and every touchpoint logged with its outcome.

Nothing depends on one staff member remembering. When they are away, the next person can see exactly where the conversation got to.

Attendance, and the people who quietly stopped coming

A check-in terminal at the door, a live count while service is going, and a history you can go back through. Present today, guests today, and the breakdown by men, women and children.

Attendance is only useful if it tells you something you would act on, so absentee and care turns it into names: the family that has missed five weeks shows up as a call to make, not as a line sloping gently downward on a dashboard nobody opens.

Text, email and WhatsApp — and proof of delivery

Americans read texts, so SMS is a first-class channel here rather than an upsell. Send to the whole church, one campus, a small group, a ministry team, or everyone with a birthday this month, from the same composer. Attach the flyer and it travels with the email.

Then the part almost nobody else does: each recipient is recorded individually — sent, delivered, bounced, complained. A church that emails four hundred people learns that sixty addresses are dead, rather than assuming four hundred people were told.

Children’s ministry, ministries and events

Sunday School keeps its own roster of classes, children and the teacher responsible, and children are recorded with guardian contact details rather than their own. Ministry teams hold the people who serve and the schedule they serve on. Events get a public page you can share beyond the church, with invitations going out through the same communications as everything else.

Reports, without exporting everything to a spreadsheet first

Seven reports come as standard, previewed on screen, then printed, saved as PDF, or exported as CSV when somebody wants the raw numbers.

Your data stays yours

Access follows your own structure rather than a flat list of administrators, sensitive actions are logged, and a full export is yours on request at any time, with no fee and no notice period. A denomination can have a deployment of its own — its own database, storage and domain — in the region it chooses.

What it costs

From $79 a month for a church of up to 150 members, up to a denominational rate billed per congregation rather than per member — every member and every volunteer leader with a login is included, so growing a campus does not grow the bill. A 30-day free trial, with no card.

Getting started

Create the church, import the export from whatever you use today, and take attendance on Sunday. Bulk import recognises people already on file instead of duplicating them, so importing twice does not double your roll. Most churches get something out of it in the first week, well before every field is filled in.

Is there an app to install?

The member portal installs to a phone’s home screen straight from the browser — no app store, no download, and nothing to update.

Do we pay per member?

No. Plans go by church size, and a multi-site church or denomination is billed per congregation, so every member and every volunteer leader with a login is included.

Does it handle online giving or contribution statements?

Not in the standard product. Online giving, text-to-give and contribution statements can be built as an add-on for a church on its own dedicated deployment. On a standard plan, churches keep the giving platform they already use, and ChurchConnect covers membership, attendance, guest follow-up, children’s ministry, events, reporting and communications.

Can we run several campuses from one account?

Yes. Each campus keeps its own roster and serving schedule, campus leaders see their own campus, and leadership sees the whole church — with a report that puts every campus side by side.

Can we send text messages as well as email?

Yes, from the same composer and the same audience — email, SMS and WhatsApp. Email carries a flyer image and a link; text carries the message and the link.

Will we know whether an email actually reached someone?

Yes. Every recipient is recorded individually as sent, delivered, bounced or complained, so a dead address shows up as a dead address rather than being counted as a successful send.

Can we move our existing records across?

Yes — bulk import takes the spreadsheet or export you already have, and recognises people already on file rather than duplicating them.

Does it work for a church with a Spanish service?

Yes. Each member chooses their own language and everything the church sends follows it, so one announcement reaches the English congregation in English and the Spanish congregation in Spanish.
