heavy church-suite bloat
Focused on the rota, not a full church suite.
Small, practical tools for the week-to-week planning job.
The first slice keeps the product narrow: one church at a time, one weekly service plan, one rota view, and a payment path when the church is ready to upgrade.
Build the rota fast
Create a weekly service plan, fill the volunteer roles, and spot gaps in one calm view.
Keep volunteers in view
Track who is assigned, who is still pending, and who can be moved onto the next week.
Reminder workflow starts simple
Export or message the missing roles before Sunday and keep the handoff lightweight.
Payment is ready
Upgrade the church to the paid tier through a hosted Stripe checkout link.
Made for small congregations and volunteer teams.
A calmer way to plan Sundays.
