Software for the church office
Everything your church keeps, kept in one place
Member records, the offering, the schedules, the bulletin, sermons, and documents. One program, one price for the whole congregation.
The bulletin builds itself
Sunday's bulletin fills in from the schedules, the offering plan, and the announcements you already entered.
A phone number for the service
Members without internet call a phone number and hear the service live.
Gifts go to your bank
Online gifts go straight to the church's bank account. ChurchKeeper never holds the money.
All of church life, one set of records
One record per person, one page per family
A member's name, contact details, birthday, membership dates, household, and church offices are on one record. The directory members see online is the same record the secretary keeps.
See how it worksA member portal that fits in a pocket
From a phone, members can look up the directory, check the calendar, read the bulletin, listen to a sermon, and see their own giving. Members who never log in still get statements, calls, and the dial-in number.
Built for the way conservative Anabaptist churches do church
ChurchKeeper started with the things other church software leaves out. Offerings counted by hand and entered as a batch. Host-family and cleaning schedules. Elected offices with terms and reorganization ballots. Sunday School teacher slates. A phone line for members who don't use the internet. If your congregation works this way, nothing here needs explaining. If it doesn't, the extras stay out of the way.
Why we built it
ChurchKeeper started at Lincoln Mennonite Church, where we went looking for a program that fit the way our congregation runs and could not find one. The software made for large churches assumed a staff, a stage, and a budget we did not have, and it left out the things our church actually does: offerings counted as a batch, host-family and cleaning schedules, elected roles with terms, teacher slates, and a phone line for members who don't use the internet.
So Keith built it, with Lincoln as the first church to use it, and his sons Karson and Kaleb joined him to bring it to other congregations. It should feel like it was made by people who sit in the same pews. It was.
