For churches and ministries

Run your whole church from one place

A website that looks like your church, plus your people, groups, attendance, volunteers, giving records, email and follow-up. Made for small and growing churches, with no web designer and no database to manage.

The problem

Most small churches run on a spreadsheet, a few email lists, a group text and a website nobody has time to update. First-time visitors slip through, volunteers are scheduled from memory, and year-end giving statements take a week in January.

What's included

Every plan has all of this. Plans differ only in list size and online giving.

A website you control

Five looks, your logo and colors, a home page you arrange, your own pages and menu, sermons with a podcast feed, events, a livestream page and an optional prayer wall.

People and households

Everyone in one place, with households, tags, birthdays, private notes and a history. Bring your list from Planning Center, Breeze or any spreadsheet.

Groups and ministries

Small groups, classes and serving teams, each with leaders. Visitors ask to join from your site, and your leaders approve.

Attendance

Check people in for services and groups, or just count heads. See the trend, and who has not been seen in a few weeks.

Volunteer scheduling

Schedule people for any role. They confirm or decline from a link in the email, with no login, and get a reminder before the day.

Care and follow-up

A visitor, a prayer request or a form response can become a task with an owner and a due date, so nobody is forgotten.

Giving records and statements

Record cash and checks, run campaigns, and make year-end statements to print or email. Online gifts go straight to your own Stripe account.

Email and events

Write to everyone, a group, a tag or just your visitors, now or scheduled. Events take sign-ups with a capacity and a waiting list.

Forms

Build a connect card, volunteer sign-up, baptism interest or class registration in minutes, and read the answers privately.

The right access for each leader

Give your treasurer, care team, communications lead and web editor exactly what they need and nothing more. Pastoral notes, prayer requests and form answers are stored encrypted and shown only to the roles you choose.

Your information stays yours

Import your list when you arrive. Download everything as spreadsheets whenever you like. If you ever leave, you take all of it with you.

How it works

  1. Tell us about your church

    Fill in one short application, and agree with our statement of faith.

  2. We review, you build

    A person reviews your application. Meanwhile you set up your site and bring in your people with a simple checklist and short help articles.

  3. Go live

    Once approved, your site is public and your church appears in the directory.

Newcomer introductions

Maranatha connects people who are looking for a church directly to yours. They choose your church, agree to share their contact details, and you reach out warmly and without pressure. You only receive what they agreed to share.

Plans

Starter is $29 a month and Standard is $79 a month, after a 30-day free trial. Compare plans.

Maranatha is not a charity and does not issue tax receipts. Your church issues its own.
