Running a church means juggling member records, event planning, donation tracking, volunteer coordination, and communications — often across half a dozen disconnected tools. ChMeetings brings all of that into one cloud-based platform designed specifically for churches, ministries, and dioceses of every size.^1
At its core, ChMeetings offers a member database with advanced search and custom fields, online and offline donation management through Stripe and PayPal — including Apple Pay and Google Pay on the online giving page — event registration with child check-in, volunteer scheduling with signup sheets and reusable email templates, worship service planning with templates and a song library, a drag-and-drop email designer with a new AI Writing Assistant that can generate, re-tone, or translate text in the standard editor, text and voice messaging, push notifications, and a full accounting module with budgets, fiscal year configuration, bank reconciliation, void transactions, and a matrix balance sheet view — all without needing separate software for each task.^1^14 The platform is available in 24 languages (Polish added in Beta in 2026), includes free data migration for paid plans, and offers enterprise-grade diocese management with centralized member records, multi-parish support, independent church accounts, and custom Power BI reporting.^2^5
ChMeetings was launched in 2018 by Jios Apps Inc, a USA-based company founded and led by Michael Attia, whose team actively serves in church ministries like youth group, couples' ministry, and Sunday school.^4 That hands-on involvement shapes how features get built — new tools are developed based on direct feedback from the churches they serve. Today, more than 7,000 churches, ministries, and dioceses trust ChMeetings, including organizations like The Salvation Army.^1 In 2025–2026, the platform rolled out role-based Form Managers (Manager or View-Only access), automated Attendance Reports with three report types (Absentee, Standard, and Detailed), Public Groups for community engagement through the member portal, a dedicated Coptic Orthodox church management solution, and a Capterra/G2-recognized reputation for support.^5^9
Why Christians Love It"This app was the best since it allows you to do it all, from church management to service planning, and it does so much more. They are always coming out with new updates and listen to customers' feedback."^7
"We are small church and never have the opportunity to have an app with everything I need for the price that we can afford. Glory to God and bless the people behind."^7
"With ChMeetings I don't just feel like another number. Anytime I had a question or raised a ticket, they were quick to respond and help out."^8
"An incredible support team, agile, accurate and robust. Continuous releases with improvement and new features."^8
