What My Church Secretary Does

Member Directory & Records

Most churches now keep digital records. But is the information used, or does it just sit on a hard drive doing nothing? My Church Secretary not only provides secure storage for your records, but also notifies you of important events when you need to know. Birthdays, baptisms, anniversaries, memorials — not only is this information stored in your member directory, but My Church Secretary makes it easy to reach out to members on these important dates in order to create opportunities for ministry. My Church Secretary can also flag changes in church activity so that you can contact members before they become inactive.

Congregational Communication

No matter how big, every church wants to feel like a small church, where members are connected to one another and the pastoral staff. But even in medium-size churches, the need for timely communication can overwhelm the church office. My Church Secretary solves this problem by surfacing useful information from the directory when it is needed. Would you like to message couples on their wedding anniversaries but don’t have time to look up the information in the directory? Have you ever forgotten to message a widow on the anniversary of her loved one’s death? My Church Secretary remembers the information for you. But it also provides an easy-to-use solution for sending the messages using email and SMS. Whether it is one message, fifty, or a hundred, My Church Secretary makes communication manageable so that the pastor has more time for ministry and is connecting with members at opportune times. We also provide resources to help your ministry stay compliant using SMS. Learn more in our SMS Program & Policy and Privacy Policy.

Online Giving Records

Connect your church’s Stripe-powered giving page so donations are automatically recorded for receipts and donor acknowledgment. Your church remains the merchant of record; funds go directly to accounts your church controls.

Prayer Center

Prayer requests can lead to some of the most important conversations between a pastor and parishioner. But prayer requests also have a tendency to be forgotten over time. My Church Secretary tracks prayer requests in a dedicated Prayer Center that makes it easy to update a prayer group concerning new requests or changes to an old one. It also connects the prayer request to the member’s card, so the pastor can check that member’s prayer history.

Social Media Center

Your church already has a Facebook page, but is it active? If a visitor views a page that hasn’t been updated in six months, it sends the signal that your church isn’t active, even if a lot of good things have happened in those six months. My Church Secretary connects to your Facebook page to provide automatic updates based on your event calendar. It will also suggest posts based on weekly readings and your church’s saints’ days. My Church Secretary makes a consistent social media presence manageable so that everyone knows what God is doing in your church.

Website

Before a visitor comes through your door for the first time, he has already come through your website. If a prospective member visits an outdated website — or worse, one that is broken — he may move to the next church, and you could never know that you had an opportunity for ministry. My Church Secretary provides you with a modern website that is easy to update. Your pictures will always be current, your events will always be up to date, and your website will always work. Your subscription includes a modern church website, built for you during setup and kept refreshingly current.

Pricing

Church management software is a crowded market with many providers. One of the many features that sets My Church Secretary apart is price. Annoyed by pricing tiers? Shocked by annual fees that can run into the thousands of dollars? We believe in transparency and fair pricing. My Church Secretary is available to all churches for a flat monthly fee of $100. New subscribers will also be charged a one-time setup fee of $200 to build a modern website and move records that are already digitized.
