Church staff shouldn't have to run Sunday out of ten browser tabs. Ministry Planner is a ministry operations workspace built for church teams: one place to plan teaching, build service plans, schedule volunteers, and keep every ministry in sync.^1
Instead of replacing your church management system, it sits on top of it as a coordination layer. One entry in the teaching calendar cascades into the whole week, generating the service plan, run sheet, worship set, and volunteer requests automatically, so the worship pastor, kids director, and volunteer coordinator all work from the same plan.^1 It syncs bidirectionally with Planning Center and brings team chat, projects, documents, and meeting notes under one login, scaling from a single church plant to a multi-site network.^2
Ministry Planner was built by Paul Priddy, a teaching pastor at Lifepoint Church in Marion, Ohio, and Ryan Brown, the developer behind MemoryVerses.com, two people who wanted the unified workspace they wished existed for their own teams.^3 Pricing is flat per church rather than per seat, with unlimited team members on every plan and a free trial to start.^2
