Texting, worship scheduling, signup sheets, and a member directory that all share one set of contact information — so a phone number updated once is right everywhere. Built by a pastor who needed it to exist.
Most churches stitch this together from three or four subscriptions that don't talk to each other. Here, the directory feeds everything.
Everything below, for one flat price — not per user, not per member.
Group and church-wide text messaging, with AI-drafted messages that sound like you — not a robot.
Plan services and schedule volunteers, with text notifications straight to the people serving.
Event and volunteer signups with contact info already filled in — plus text reminders so people actually show up.
Members and households in one place. The single source of contact info every other tool draws from.
Your plan includes 1,000 text credits a month — enough for a smaller church to text everyone a couple times a week. Need more? Buy a pack. Credits you purchase never expire.
1 credit per standard text (up to 160 characters), 2 for longer messages, 3 for picture messages. Replies from your members never cost anything.
If a send would go past your balance, we simply ask before charging you anything. Nothing goes on your bill that someone didn't deliberately approve.
Monthly plan credits refresh each cycle. Purchased packs sit in reserve and are only used after your monthly credits run out — this month, next year, whenever.
| Credit pack | Per credit | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 100 credits | 5.0¢ | $5 |
| 500 credits | 3.4¢ | $17 |
| 1,000 credits | 3.2¢ | $32 |
| 1,500 credits | 3.0¢ | $45 |
| 2,500 credits | 2.8¢ | $70 |
| 5,000 credits | 2.5¢ | $125 |
For comparison: most church texting platforms charge 3–5.5¢ for texts beyond your plan — and bill you automatically.
Every add-on is half its standalone price when added to the bundle.
The pastoral care layer. Track touchpoints and conversations, get follow-up reminders, and see connection suggestions — so nobody quietly slips away unnoticed. Sits right on top of your directory.
Photo-first facility and asset tracking. Snap a photo — AI identifies the item and reads the label for you. Know what you own, where it is, and when it was serviced. Comparable tools start at $49/month, per user.
Keep an eye on your church's website, Wi-Fi, and streaming gear. Know something's down before Sabbath morning does.
And free never means ad-supported here. No ads on any of our tools — ever. We price fairly so we never need ad revenue. The linked tools below are live and ready to try today.
Free. Always. For everyone.

ChurchToolbox is built by Pastor Mark Kent, who serves a multi-church district in the Carolinas. His life focus is connecting people to Jesus — and these tools exist to help other churches do the same, by taking the friction out of everyday church communication and organization. The conviction behind every tool here: technology should work for ministry. Delegate the logistics to the toolbox, so your time goes to people — not paperwork. You're seeing an early preview, and your feedback genuinely shapes what it becomes.
