The Planning Workflow
Church service planning, from the teaching calendar to Sunday morning.
Most tools make you start from scratch every week. Ministry Planner connects your yearly teaching plan all the way down to the volunteer in the sound booth — automatically.
Plan the whole year in one place.
Start at 30,000 feet. Map out your teaching series, assign speakers, set campus-specific dates, and lock in your scriptural roadmap months in advance. Every entry you make here automatically cascades downstream.
Build the creative container around each series.
Every teaching series gets its own dedicated workspace — automatically generated the moment you create a series in the Teaching Calendar. Pastors and creative directors collaborate on sermon outlines, artwork briefs, and week-by-week notes.
Build every Sunday with a single matrix.
The Service Planner is where Sunday comes together. A powerful multi-campus matrix gives you side-by-side columns per location — with worship sets, volunteer rosters, service elements, and timing all living in one place. Your team edits live, together.
Put Sunday in every volunteer's pocket.
When service day arrives, every volunteer gets a personal mobile run sheet — no app download required. It's a full-featured, native-feeling web app with the order of service, their role, call times, song files, and a team chat room.
The Cascade Effect
Create a series in your Teaching Calendar and Ministry Planner automatically builds the series workspace, populates the service planner columns, and queues up the mobile run sheet. One action, four outputs.
