MissionInsite is a cloud-based technology platform that bridges the gap between data and decisionable information by answering the “where” and “what about” questions in your organization and community.

FAQs

To build a stronger church community, you must first know who makes up your church community. By learning who they are, where they live, and what their household and work lives look like, you can understand their needs and what they may have in common. Then, use that data to build small groups to encourage bonding of those who have similar interests within your church family. Check out Building Small Groups with MissionInsite to learn more.

MissionInsite enables organizations to see the communities they serve by integrating a variety of key behavioral, socio-economic, financial, religious, and demographic characteristics. MissionInsite answers “where” questions about your members, donors, users, locations, boundaries, housing developments, special programs, and the community at large. By visually presenting the locational relationships, questions are answered and decisions can be made – simply and easily.

Data tells you everything you need to know about your church’s health. Your members’ data allows you to connect with them on a personal level and see how they are engaging with your ministry. Your financial data keeps your church on track for budgeting, expenses, and other financial needs. Your attendance and involvement data keep you in the loop of those ministries that are growing and those that may need a little help along the way. Utilizing data at the beginning of every effort within your church ensures you’re not moving blindly, but instead serving your church in meaningful ways to encourage growth and engagement.

What our ministry partners are saying

“I don’t know how I would do our strategic missionary planning without MissionInsite. You’d never know if your vision for the future, your direction that you’re going, and the goals that you’re setting are realistic or achievable because you don’t have that data as your basis for making some of those decisions. So, to me, that’s a critical element of the planning that you can’t do without.”

Laura

Associate Director of Missionary Planning and Leadership

“MissionInsite has been instrumental in helping the churches we work with to get a real sense of who is around them and if that fits with their current programming or if maybe they need to transform their programming or relocate to an area better suited to their current participants. I can’t imagine being able to do the work we do without MissionInsite’s reports. Without knowing who is around them (and that has often drastically changed since the church was built), there is no real way for them to decide on future missional programming.”

Take your missions, camps, and retreats to the next level with management tools, including personal fundraising, applications and regulations, document tracking, reporting, and more.

FAQs

A mission trip is a short-term opportunity for volunteers to serve and share their faith with others through outreach. Some are designed for specific skill sets or age ranges, while others are open for all who are willing and called to serve. During mission trips, participants connect and help local communities achieve goals, such as building a church or school building, while also learning from the local people. This is a great time for participants to share their experiences with Christ with others in hopes of bringing others to know Christ.

Start with utilizing a tool that pulls all of your planning and trip management into one place. GoMethod handles everything — applications and background checks, references, requirements such as passports and documents that need signing, fundraising, and participant updates. Pulling all of that data into one place makes it easier to manage your trip from start to finish.

A successful mission trip can be viewed in a number of ways. From the administrative perspective, your trip was organized well and funds were raised in a timely manner to meet all of the objectives of the trip. There were no details that were missed along the way, and every participant felt prepared and ready ahead of time. From a faith perspective, your participants spread the gospel through serving others, while also strengthening their own relationships with God.

Utilize GoMethod to create a general fundraising page for your mission trip. Funds can then be transferred to teams or participants. You can also set up a fundraising page for each participant with personalized messaging and a photo for them to share with friends and family through email or on social media.

What our ministry partners are saying

“Go Method gave us the opportunity to have one-stop shopping. We can streamline the process and have information transparency for everyone involved.”

Growth Method is a Ministry Engagement Platform that manages and automates essential ministry processes, communications, and assimilation tracks to help you pastor people better.

FAQs

Church engagement is all about how your people are involved with your church. From starting as a new visitor to playing a specific role in carrying out your church’s mission and vision, a person’s engagement level grows as they become more involved in your church. What is the main purpose of engagement?

Engaging members starts with knowing who they are, their interests and involvement, and other preferences. From there, tailor your messaging and content to fit each member through personalized outreach to better connect with them and show them opportunities specifically for them to engage with your ministry. Growth Method is a ministry engagement hub that facilitates engagement by providing your staff with communication methods, task tracking, and processes to promote engagement.

Understanding the preferences of each generation in your church will help you better engage them. Check out our blog series Generational Views on Faith to read what we learned from the American Belief Reports.

Involvement depends on a person’s interests, availability, and preferences. Offer many opportunities for your people to serve in your church. Think about ways all ages can be a part of your ministry and present those opportunities often to continuously remind people of the ways they can be involved. Track people’s interests, skills, and preferences in your church management software to find those who may fit a specific volunteer role and reach out to them when that role needs to be filled. The more opportunities you present with flexible times and requirements open the door for more people to become involved.

We encourage small groups and church wide events to bring people together. Small groups allow those with similar interests and lifestyles to connect and support each other on a more personal level while also growing in faith and prayer together. Church wide events bring all of your people together in one place to connect and grow together as a church family. Promote both your small groups and church wide events often so your people never miss an opportunity to fellowship with one another.

What our ministry partners are saying

“Growth Method is about being welcomed and is the first step for someone needing help getting into a small group. Time after time, people are blown away that you’re personally texting them. That personal communication aspect goes a long way.”

Background check solutions to keep your ministry safe

Request A Demo

Protect your people and assets with proper screening

Screening in all areas of your ministry is vital in ensuring your children, vulnerable adults, finances, and more are safe in your hands. Our partners at Verified First provide the most comprehensive background checks for churches, as well as years of experience helping churches choose the best screening options for their ministries.

All Solutions

Truly know those involved

Volunteers are present within your ministry almost every time the doors are open. Be sure you’re screening each and every volunteer, from nursery workers to bus drivers to those on your finance committee, to ensure your ministry is protected at all costs.

Protection starts at the top

Starting with your pastoral leadership to ministry leaders to your church secretary, cover each level of your staff with proper screening so your church and member information isn’t compromised.

One time isn’t enough

You may have staff or volunteers who have been in your ministry for years, and you think you know them, but that’s not enough. Renew background checks often to maintain trust within your ministry.

All Solutions

We’ve partnered together to bring you the most comprehensive screening solutions integrated with our church management solutions to fully protect your ministry.

FAQs

You should run a background check on any new staff member or volunteer before they start serving in your ministry. There is no legal precedent regarding how often a background check should be run, but some insurance carriers will deny coverage unless churches repeat background checks every 12 months. You should check with your local jurisdiction for how often they are required in your state.

There are many searches available for you to run when screening your staff and volunteers. These include:

Motor Vehicle Report

National Sex Offender Public Database

Sex Offender Registry

County Criminal Database Search

Unlimited County Criminal Database Search

Statewide Criminal Database Search

Nationwide Criminal Database Check

Employment Verification

Education Verification

Credit Check

Social Security Trace

Check out our Know Your People guide for more details about each search and what they cover.

Yes! Background checks protect against the risks posed by employees and volunteers. One incident of fraud or abuse could be enough to put your entire church community at risk.

Churches run background checks to see any possible risks ahead of someone serving on staff or as a volunteer in their ministry. Most of us think of risks to our children and youth ministries, but it goes beyond that. Also, consider roles that are responsible for reaching out to or visiting senior or vulnerable adults, those driving your church vehicles, and those handling any financial or personal data within your church.

What our ministry partners are saying

“Our background checks were always a manual process. I signed up for background checks through Realm. Our manpower is so valuable. I don’t want our people manually entering data for background checks when Realm holds all that information and makes it automatic. I want our people involved in ministry not paperwork.”

Doug

Built for MinistryPlatform, the PocketPlatform custom-branded mobile app gives you a content hub with personalized experiences for your members.

FAQs

Communication is vital in building relationships with your members and guiding them forward on their discipleship journey. Communication doesn’t start when someone becomes a member of your church. Instead, it starts the moment a prospective visitor views your church’s website to consider if they would like to visit your church. Your website is the first communication channel they view, or maybe they view your social media accounts to see images and listen to the streaming of your service ahead of visiting. Think about communications as the invisible string connecting everything within your ministry. From your church’s website and social media accounts communicating to new visitors to your church’s mobile app, texts, emails, and worship announcements speaking to your members, keeping everyone connected through personalized and meaningful communications ensures your visitors and members are engaged with your ministry and continue to grow as a church family.

Church communications can be improved by moving away from the “tell-all” mindset and into a personalized, “tell me only what I need to know” perspective. For example, those in your senior adult ministry don’t need to know the location for the children’s Christmas play practice has changed, but the parents of those children do need that information. Develop a communication strategy that is based on telling members what they need to know about the specific ministries and events they are involved in while still communicating details for church-wide events or ministry efforts. This will allow your members to better engage with the ministries they care about while not missing details due to an overload of information.

What our ministry partners are saying

“Ministry Platform, Growth Method, & Pocket Platform have been instrumental in helping us engage with our church in more meaningful ways. I believe that data is can inform us and help us tailor our care for our church attendees. Seeing people instead of rows of data (but not apart from the data we know about them) bring purpose to what we do in the data world, and Ministry Platform helps us do just that. All of our systems help us make a big church feel much smaller, to help us ensure that no one falls through the cracks, and to come alongside them in their walks with Jesus in meaningful & impactful ways.”

FAQs

Church accounting software should be designed specifically for the church. True fund accounting allows you to build your general ledger based on your funds and organize them to best fit your ministry. An integrated accounting solution allows you to better manage your church’s donations and finances by giving you the tools you need to track gifts and post them to your general ledger all in a single solution. ACS Technologies offers ACS Financials and Realm Accounting, which are both built and designed for churches to provide ministry-specific features to make managing your church’s finances easier.

Church financial records are important for tax-related purposes and transparency. You need to record and track donations, expenses, income, payroll, disbursements, and any other transactions coming in or out of the church. You’ll also need to build a church budget, do a bank and credit card reconciliation, provide giving receipts and tax statements to your donors, manage vendors and provide tax reports they need to file each year and provide reports to your leadership to give them an overview or detailed look at your church’s financial health.

The best accounting software for churches is one that is designed for churches with ministry-specific features, such as fund accounting, church financial reports, departmental expense tracking, and integrated payroll software designed to manage ministry/clergy details. Realm Accounting and ACS Financials are the top accounting software for churches.

Church finances should be handled with care, with anyone who is handling the finances of the church being properly screened to protect your church’s financial data. This may include church leadership, staff members, volunteers helping to count donations each week, and those on your church’s financial committee.

What our ministry partners are saying

“It took them three days to reconcile all the credit card transactions and the bill pays, putting all that information into Realm Accounting. So, the first project I worked on was to take all that data, transform it, and create an import for Realm. I’ve got two imports built, and I reduced that time from three days to a couple of hours.”

FAQs

Giving powers your church to continue ministry and outreach efforts. Like many, your efforts to reach people for the Kingdom of God continue to increase, which has you wondering how you can increase giving to better support those efforts. Consider how you are allowing donors to give to your church. Offer intuitive and familiar giving options, such as online giving, text-to-give, and mobile app giving. Include how your members and visitors can give in weekly bulletins, worship slides, newsletters, and any other regular communication channels. Feature giving on your church’s website so it is easy for donors to find how to give. Don’t stop with how to give. Communicate where tithes and offerings go so your donors can see the impact their donations make.

The Bible is filled with scriptures about giving. Check out Tithing Scriptures in the Bible to read more about what the Bible says about tithes and offerings.

Giving is not only a vital part of your ministry, but a large part of the Christian walk as we are called to give a portion of what God has given us. Your church should encourage faithful giving as it is an important part of your members’ discipleship journeys. Read Tithing and Offering Messaging Ideas to see how you can step into your donors’ minds and talk about giving in an impactful and meaningful way.

Start by looking at the options for online giving with your church management software. Some church management software allows you to turn on online giving and start the merchant application process through the software itself. Once your merchant application is submitted, you’ll receive a notification that you can start using online giving once your account is live. Then, add your giving link to your website and promote your new giving ways to your church.

What our ministry partners are saying

“It’s phenomenal to be able to manage cash flow when giving is online and particularly when it’s automated with Realm.”

Manch

Executive Director of Finance

I like the online giving option because our members can make it part of their weekly budget or monthly budget. It’s not “reach in your pocket and see what kind of change you have.”
