Small Church Management Software
Does a small church need church management software? If you've been a part of a new church that started from the ground up, in the very early days when there were just a few people meeting in someone's living room, the idea of needing software to organize that group might have seemed laughable.
People sitting in circle in living room - maybe illustrator people.
As the church grew however, the reality sets in that some system for organization will soon be needed. As new people join and people's needs exceed the mental capacity in the sole pastor's head, something needs to change.
