If you don’t have the app yet, it’s a worthwhile investment for most age groups in your church – it’s free for your congregation to install on their device and only GB Ā£7.50 / US $10 per month for the church to buy into. It will mean your congregation can catch up with sermon mp3s, your schedule/rota/roster, calendar, groups, classes and even check into services and classes.
Getting a church subscription funds plugin development too!
Every blessing
