COVID-19 has presented complicated challenges to all kinds of organizations, but few have been impacted as significantly as churches. In an online survey conducted by Ministry Brands of 1,400 church leaders, “almost 60 percent of respondents indicated that a reduction in donation income is one of the top challenges facing their church. This was particularly noticeable among Catholic churches, a full 67 percent of which expressed concern about reduced giving.” The survey also found that 74 percent of churches are holding a combination of online and in-person services.
Church leaders across the world are actively looking for ways to improve their ability to virtually engage with members and collect donations online.
Church management software platforms ought to anticipate these needs and make it as easy as possible for their churches to continue to spread their message and engage with members through the pandemic and beyond.
Today’s faithful fully expect to engage with and donate to their church online in the same manner they would any other professional organization.With reduced in-person attendance due to COVID-19, websites provide crucial lifelines that connect members with their faith communities and allow them to access valuable resources like livestreams of services and sermon recordings.
