People feel disconnected from your church

Most churches really struggle to communicate consistently with their people and that can leave them feeling disconnected.

Church communication shouldn’t be difficult

Born out of a church plant, we know what it’s like to struggle with getting the word out and making meaningful connections with members and guests.

More than 35,000 church leaders use our platform every week to boost attendance and deepen relationships. That means we’ve helped countless people connect with their church in a simple, meaningful way.

Is your phone system clunky and complicated?

Let’s fix that. Now you can use one number for everything related to ministry!

Supercharge your existing land line number, by using it for inbound office calls, text communications, and mobile calls.

If you are a Text In Church™ user, you can even integrate your existing land line phone number with your text messaging strategy.

How it Works

Turn every call into a meaningful conversation

Make it easy for your callers to find the answers they are looking for, including sending them texts automatically.


Imagine a system that instantly texts callers information they are looking for based on their selection…

  • Links with service times & map links

  • Plan their visit to your church

  • Register to serve or volunteer

  • Submit a prayer request

How it Works

Tired of missing ministry calls while out of the office?

Nobody can be at their desk 24/7.

Now, you can do ministry on the go without having to share your personal cell phone number ever again.

Even if you do miss a call, our Smart Voicemail Assistant technology will give you easy access to your voicemail. Get push notifications and email reminders to listen to messages or read transcriptions. No more lost messages or messages going unheard.

How It Works

The power of a local phone number

When you create a Text In Church® account, you are given a local phone number (or we can port your current number!) to use.

  • Why a local phone number?

  • It’s legal, secure, more personal
  • They have the best and fastest delivery rates
  • Doesn’t feel spammy like a toll-free number

Real people use local phone numbers. And real people want to connect with real people. So we recommend your church communicate with a local phone number.

What church leaders like you have to say…

We traded out our previous Plan A Visit form for Text In Church’s digital connect card. Amazing! Our guests using this system automatically get a text from me asking which service they would like to plan to visit, a detailed email from me, and then a text telling them Ican't wait to see them. 67% of guest families that go through this process are taking next steps and becoming regular attenders.

I can streamline, bulk load, and communicate with everyone in my church without being glued to my tech. It's revolutionized our communication and is allowing us to grow.

It has turned follow-up from an inconsistent hassle, to a consistent and effective joy!

Josh Johnson

What church leaders like you have to say…

So far, Text In Church helped us retain 50% of our first-time guests that actually filled out ourconnect cards. The personal text messages help our guests feel wanted, valued and appreciated. There is no way one person could keep up with multiple guests for six weeks. But with this app, it’s possible to not let one person fall thru the cracks.

Because of Text In Church, we can CARE for our people, and the greatest example of this iswhen we text and simply ask if there is anything we can pray with them about, the response is so huge!!
