Church management
Bring your records in and know each person in your community better
Import existing data without retyping, review the columns and replace scattered files with searchable records organized by location and protected by permissions.
In practice
Church member management and import
Sanctuware was created to replace scattered controls with a clear, accessible experience suited to the responsibilities of each team.
- Import from XLS, XLSX, CSV, TSV and WordPress
- Preview, column mapping and duplicate control
- Contacts, locations and history in a single profile
A record your team actually uses
Many churches keep data spread across paper cards, spreadsheets and conversations. Sanctuware brings name, contact, family, location, status and history into one searchable profile, so your office can find anyone in seconds and keep information up to date.
Assisted import, no retyping
Bring the base you already have in XLS, XLSX, CSV, TSV or WordPress XML. The importer shows a preview, suggests column mapping and handles duplicates by email or phone, avoiding repeated records and manual cross-checking.
Privacy and permissions from the first record
Each organization only accesses its own data, and roles define who can view, edit and export. Consent tracking helps the church document the purpose of each processing activity.
A platform that grows with your community routine
Start with essential records and enable areas as your team is ready. The free Community plan requires no credit card.
Security from sign-in onward
Records are linked to the authenticated organization and administrative operations are protected by role. See also our security and data protection pages.
