Every church secretary knows the pain: member info scattered across spreadsheets, sticky notes, and someone's memory. Breeze ChMS was built to fix that. Founded by pastor Jon VerLee, Breeze set out to be the simplest church management software imaginable — and for over 10,000 churches, it delivered.^1
In August 2021, Tithely acquired Breeze, merging two pastor-founded companies into a unified platform.^2 Today, Breeze has been officially rebranded as Tithely Church Management — same simple interface, now integrated with Tithely's giving, custom church apps, websites, and worship tools under the Simply Serve™ mission.^3 The platform handles people management with custom fields and tags, online and text giving, event scheduling with check-in and name tags, email and text messaging, attendance tracking, volunteer coordination, service planning with SongSelect® integration, forms, background checks, and detailed reporting.^1
The web-based platform works on any device, and companion mobile apps on iOS and Android let staff and members access directories, give, and manage on the go.^6 What set Breeze apart from the start was radical simplicity — free data import, free phone and email support, and an interface that even non-technical volunteers could navigate.^1 Now part of a platform trusted by over 50,000 churches across 50 countries, from Hillsong to the Salvation Army.^3
Why Churches Love It"Breeze has been a great asset to our church and congregation. Especially from an administrative standpoint, it has been the most adaptable and easiest church database I have ever used." — Chris K., Crossroads United Methodist Church^8
"We switched from a major, web-based ChMS to Breeze and our decision is confirmed every day. I had trouble getting any staff to use our previous ChMS but almost all staff are using Breeze." — Ed R., Church Admin^8
"I've used Breeze CHMS with two different jobs now and find it very user friendly. Even for non tech folks. Congregants of all ages and tech abilities give great feedback." — App Store Review^6
