Turn First-Time Visitors Into Committed Members
Capture every guest and run a follow-up process that welcomes them back before they slip away.
Many churches are wonderful at welcoming guests on Sunday and terrible at reaching them on Monday. A visitor fills in a card, it goes into a drawer, and by the time anyone thinks to follow up the moment has passed and the guest never returns.
Churchy makes sure no first-timer is forgotten. Capture each visitor's details, assign them to a follow-up team, and work through a clear process of calls, visits and SMS that turns a single visit into a lasting connection.

A clear path from guest to member
Instead of hoping someone remembers to call, Churchy gives you a defined follow-up workflow. Each first-timer moves through stages your team can see, so leaders always know who has been contacted and who still needs a warm welcome.
Part of your assimilation strategy
Because first-timers connect to your member database, a guest who keeps returning can be moved into membership, groups and pastoral care without re-entering their details. The whole journey of belonging lives in one system.
