Effective Automated Workflows
Connection CAN and SHOULD happen all over your church - before, during, and after service and not just on Sunday! We have proven connection strategies and automated workflows that will send emails and text messages for you. Your can even send reminders to you and staff to personally connect with guests and members!
Engage in real conversations
You’ll be sending messages of encouragement, announcements, event invitations, and reminders. And you will receive responses from your people. This is a 2-way texting system. We encourage conversation that lead to building deeper relationships than ever before.
Nobody gets stuck in a group chat
When your community responds, you’ll have 1-on-1 conversations in the messages tab. Now, the whole group doesn’t have to hear about Uncle Larry’s knee surgery!
Personalized communication
You are able to automatically insert the recipient’s real name and personalize your messages, so it doesn’t feel like a generic email or text blast.
Communication on-the-go
By using our iOS and Android Apps, you have the ability to quickly send text messages to your groups, reschedule emails and texts to send at a later date, reply from your mobile phone when people need you the most, and so much more.
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
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.
We handle it all. Yes, even the fees. Our team will work with cell phone carriers to complete registration as quickly as possible (typically within a few days).

What happens when people reply to our texts?
This is where the magic happens. You'll find all the incoming message replies in your Text In Church account inbox (similar to an email inbox) and you can respond to them right there. No annoying group chats, either! You'll communicate one-on-one with people in simple, meaningful ways.
Do I have to download anything?
No, Text In Church is a web-based software. You don’t have to download or install anything. There is no new equipment you’ll need, either. You just login to your account on your computer or the mobile app on your phone.
What if I go over my message limit?
When you reach your account plan limit, a large green banner will appear at the top of your Text In Church account when logged in to notify you, and then you move to a pay-as-you-go system. Each text message sent over your plan limit will just be 3 cents per message; you will be charged for that on your normal monthly invoice date.
Are there limits to how many users, contacts, or groups I can have?
Nope, nope, and nope. It’s UNLIMITED!

We have leaned into almost everything Text In Church as to offer, and without a doubt, I can say it connected our church in ways that could not have happened without Text In Church. I can assure you that Text In Church will make ministry more effortless and more impactful to your congregation and allow you to do the job of three people while knowing things are happening while you are spending time with your family and sleeping.

Communicating has become soooo much easier and soooo much fun!
This has been a helpful tool for us to get the word out to our church family and local guests. Some people prefer a text over email, so this is a great option.
