Requests, encouragement, and answered prayers stay together instead of disappearing in scattered texts and emails.

A FOCUSED COMMUNITY LAYER
Your church doesn’t need another management system.
Keep your website, giving, check-in, and planning tools. ChurchFam replaces the patchwork used for life between Sundays — Facebook Groups, GroupMe, prayer-chain emails, group texts, and out-of-date directories — with one private place built for your church family.

A note from the founder
“I built ChurchFam because I saw a need in the church, and just couldn’t let it go.”
Existing apps help people connect to the church organization, but not to the true church: each other. ChurchFam is a tool to help us carry out the “one another” commands, without ads, without an algorithm, and with nothing engineered to keep you scrolling.

FAQ
Questions? We have answers.
Plans start at $20/mo for up to 100 members. Every plan includes every feature; the only difference is how many members join the app (members you add to the directory never count until they join). Choose annual billing and two months are free.
Never. ChurchFam is free for every member: no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, and no ads. The church’s subscription covers the whole congregation.
Yes. You get every feature, for your whole congregation. 30 days free. Card required to start. Cancel anytime, no charge if you cancel before the trial ends. We ask for the card up front so your church isn’t interrupted if you decide to stay.
They can join as email-only members. Prayer requests and announcements reach them by email, so they stay part of the church family without ever opening the app. For everyone else, the app is genuinely simpler than Facebook: a few tabs, large readable type, and nothing to configure.
No. ChurchFam is a community app, not church management software. It works alongside any existing management software like Planning Center and your website. Importing your directory from Planning Center is on the roadmap.
ChurchFam is invite-only with no public profiles. We never sell data and never run ads. Members control which contact details they share, and your church can export all of its data at any time.
Accounts are for adults 18 and older right now. Teen accounts are on the roadmap, with the safeguards a church would expect.
Not hard. It’s a migration, not an addition. Add members by invite, announce it on a Sunday, share your invite link, and seed the first few prayer requests. Our First-48-Hours launch playbook walks you through it so the switch actually sticks.
Your church moves onto the plan that matches how many members have joined the app, and nothing changes for members. Cancel anytime, no charge if you cancel before the trial ends. You can export your church’s data either way.
Yes. ChurchFam runs on iPhone and Android, and leaders can manage the church from any browser.
Get it on the App Store or Google Play.
