Church Center
A Mobile App for Your Congregants
Use Cases
Learn
As you use other Planning Center products to organize ministries across your church, all the information you gather automatically syncs in the People database.
The more you use the full system, the more People becomes a powerful tool for every ministry to connect with congregants.
Membership Database
Organize the personal details of individual congregants and their households in a single place.
Custom fields help you track details unique to your church, like confirmation and baptism dates, gift assessments, or class completions.
Activity and communication records show participation from across Planning Center, like group attendance and donations, on a single feed.
Background check indicators show you someone’s background check status and allow you to quickly order a new one if needed.

Data Dashboards and Custom Reports
Analyze church-wide data at-a-glance and drill down to the details with member reports.
View all member demographics, membership types, campus assignments, and background check statuses from your homepage dashboard.
Filter your database to make custom reports based on peoples’ information and activity records—lists of people within your larger congregation.
Texting, Push Notifications, and Emailing
Make announcements or send direct messages to your entire congregation or specific groups of people.
Send simple emails to everyone on a list, or create custom, stylized campaigns through MailChimp.
Push notifications for the Church Center mobile app and web are an easy way to update everyone in your church.
Text credits allow you to send mass texts out to lists of people!

Follow Up Workflows
Check in with your congregation throughout the week and give them ways to connect further.
Create unique workflows for different processes—like following up with first-time visitors or people who requested prayer—and then walk people through step by step.
Assign specific steps in the workflow to people, as well as set due dates and automatic reminders. You can also collaborate on the task in the notes.
