A week with Pastoral Office

Sunday’s register becomes Wednesday’s care list.

Every part of Pastoral Office reads from the same records, so the work of one day sets up the next. Here is one week of it.

  1. Sunday11:40

    Close the register.

    Ushers check people in by name, card or scanner, or, where the church has switched it on, members tap in from their phone at church. When the last person is in, the usher marks the register complete, and everybody not on it is counted as away from that service.

    • Check in by card, by name or with a USB scanner
    • Reopen the register if people are still arriving
    • A child's release code goes to the parent's phone, never the desk

  2. Wednesday09:15

    See who has drifted.

    The Follow-up list holds the members who have missed several services in a row, counted only from registers marked complete. Log what you did, and they leave the list until they miss another.

    • Phoned them, visited, WhatsApp or spoke at church
    • A note for whoever follows up next
    • Every visitor gets three follow-ups: within 3 days, 2 weeks and 6 weeks

  3. Saturday16:05

    Keep going without a signal.

    At an outreach with no connection, attendance counts and gifts are saved on the device and sync when you are back online. Nothing waiting to be sent is ever thrown away.

    • Saved offline, then sent in one tap
    • Everything still waiting is listed in one place
    • Giving is only ever seen by the people allowed to see it

Wherever your church is

One church, many places.

Branches on different continents, a congregation spread across cities, a diaspora church sending support home. Pastoral Office keeps them on one set of records, in each place’s own currency and time zone, without a separate system per site.

  • Multisite HQ with cross-branch reporting
  • Local currency and time zone per branch
  • Mobile Money across Africa, cards everywhere else
