When your church needs to reach its people — really reach them — you need a tool that's both powerful and approachable. Flocknote is an all-in-one church communication, member management, and online giving platform trusted by over 10,000 churches and 220,000+ ministry leaders across the U.S. and Canada.^1
At its core, Flocknote makes it simple to send unlimited emails and text messages to your entire congregation (or specific groups), with built-in reply capture so you can actually hear back.^2 Beyond communication, the platform offers a robust household database for organizing members into families, tracking attendance and sacramental participation, managing religious education registration, and running event signups — all under one roof.^3 Online giving is included free with every plan, letting parishioners donate via text, QR code, or customizable giving pages without needing to log in.^2
What sets Flocknote apart is how it's built and who built it. Founded in 2009 by Catholic entrepreneur Matthew Warner after he left his engineering career to serve the Church full-time, Flocknote is a 100% employee-owned company inspired by Distributism and Catholic Social Teaching.^4 The company does no advertising or social media — growing almost entirely through referrals from satisfied churches.^1 They also partner with over 50 diocesan and archdiocesan offices, and content partners like Word on Fire, Ascension Press, and Life Teen provide ready-to-send materials within the platform.^3
