## What is Freemercy?

Freemercy is how a church runs — its people, its giving, its calendar, its children's ministry, and the conversations that hold it all together — in one app.

ONE PLACE FOR THE WHOLE CHURCH
Announcements, upcoming events, the member directory, and what's happening this week. Everyone sees what matters, without another Facebook group or a buried email.

GIVING, THE WAY IT SHOULD BE
Give once, or set up something that repeats. It goes straight to your church. Track funds and campaigns — a mission trip, a building project — and print your own year-end giving statement when tax season comes.

CHILDREN'S MINISTRY THAT KEEPS KIDS SAFE
Check your kids into Sunday school from your seat, no queue at a desk. Each child's allergies and medical notes follow them to their class. And if a leader needs you, your phone gets through — even on silent, even in the middle of a service.

EVENTS AND RSVPS
See what's on, say you're coming, and get a nudge the day before so you don't forget.

TALK TO YOUR PEOPLE
Message a ministry team or one person, without handing out anybody's phone number. Report or block anyone, any time.

FOR STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS
Build the serving schedule, see the days you're on, run the check-in desk from a tablet, and manage the whole church from the web.
