Psalmly keeps your whole church connected between Sundays — prayer, events, groups, announcements, and giving, all in one warm, simple app. Already part of a church on Psalmly? Sign in, or join with a code from your church, and everything your church shares flows straight to your phone. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Stay in the loop — announcements, bulletins, and event reminders arrive as push notifications, so you never miss church news. • Never miss a gathering — see what's coming up, RSVP in a tap, add events to your calendar, and fill out registration forms right in the app. • Pray together — share prayer requests (anonymously if you'd like) and lift each other up through the week. • Find your people — every group gets its own space for posts, photos, replies, and its own schedule. • Give generously — make a one-time or recurring gift by card or bank in a couple of taps, see the funds you're supporting, and manage recurring giving anytime. Your year-end contribution statement is always a tap away. • Stay connected — a warm member directory helps you reach people in your church, and you control how you appear. • One home for every church — belong to more than one? Your home screen brings them all together, with a shared calendar and giving across all of them. • Ask Psalmly — at churches on a paid plan, a built-in assistant answers questions like "when's youth group?" in seconds. BUILT FOR SMALL CHURCHES Psalmly is church-management software made for small churches and the people in them — warm, uncluttered, and easy for everyone. The app is free to download, and churches set up free at psalmly.app. Giving is powered by Stripe, and your gifts go directly to your church.
