As June approaches, churches are thinking through summer programming and evaluating how to safely meet in-person.
As always, we’re here to help you think through every step of this process. Here’s a recent blog post where we explored ways to re-open within social distancing guidelines.
The foreseeable future of church gatherings looks to be a mix of modified corporate gathering and continued at-home streaming. To that end, we’re rolling out new features in the mobile app, including SMS improvements to make it easier to keep your people engaged and connected.
Online and recurring giving via mobile has emerged as a key way for people to give. To better equip you, we’re kicking off a three-part webinar series focused on optimizing mobile giving. Be sure to sign up for the first session on Wednesday, June 10.
Community roundtables have been a hit, and there are a few sessions remaining. Learn more about the upcoming meetings and sign up to join here.
Finally, we hope to see you September 16-18 at TouchPoint Summit in Memphis. Learn more and sign up for Summit here.
We are grateful to be on this journey together!

This new feature allows you great flexibility in customizing your home page. Each section of the homepage is now configured in a small application (a widget). You can edit them, rearrange them, enable and disable them, even create your own! Read more.
There’s a New Data Center
We’re migrating to new servers. The migration is expected to take only a few minutes and you should not notice any change in service. On the day of your move, nightly processes will still be run as usual, including recurring giving.
