Every team knows who’s on, and when.
Rotations that account for who’s actually available, swaps volunteers sort out themselves, and sign-ups anyone can claim. Plus a worship side with a song library, service plans, and a rehearsal view — so the team is on the same page by Thursday.
Nobody quits over the schedule.
They quit over being scheduled the one weekend they told you they’d be away, and then feeling guilty about it.
The schedule is a spreadsheet
One person owns it, it’s out of date the moment it’s sent, and version four is the one in the group text.
Swaps happen in DMs
Two people agree to trade and nobody updates the sheet. Sunday morning, both of them stay home.
The set list arrives Saturday
Which means nobody practiced, which means rehearsal is where you learn the songs instead of where you play them.
Serving & Worship, in detail.
Teams and rotations that respect real life
Build your teams, set a rotation, and let volunteers mark when they’re unavailable before the schedule is built rather than after. Everyone sees their own upcoming slots on the home screen of the app, with reminders that arrive in time to matter.
- Serving teams with their own rosters
- Rotation schedules across weeks and services
- Personal availability, entered by the volunteer
- “My serving schedule” front and centre in the app
Swaps volunteers settle between themselves
Can’t make it? Request a swap and the people who can cover it get asked. When someone accepts, the schedule updates itself — no coordinator in the middle, no spreadsheet to remember, no Sunday morning surprise.
- Swap requests that go to the people who can actually cover
- The schedule updates when the swap is accepted
- Your team lead sees the change without being asked
Sign-ups anyone can claim
Not every serving need is a rotation. Serving opportunities are claimable slots you can open to the whole church, to one team, or to parents only — and when someone claims one, it writes straight back into the schedule instead of living in a separate list.
- Audience-gated: everyone, a specific team, or parents
- Claimed slots write back to the real schedule
- Good for one-off needs — a work day, a funeral reception, a VBS week
Worship, planned properly
A song library your church builds over time, service plans with the order of the whole morning, and a rehearsal view for the room. The team gets it early enough to be ready, which is the entire point.
- Song library the whole team can search
- Per-service plans with ordered items — songs, readings, transitions
- A rehearsal view built for the practice room
- Team sign-up sheets for who’s playing which week
No feature tiers, no add-ons, no upsell.
Where this connects
Every part of Churchory shares one directory, one permission system, and one price.
