How PowerChurch Plus Can Help You
PowerChurch Plus helps you streamline your administrative tasks and manage
your information. Here’s how it can help you keep track of the wealth of
information your church needs to maintain:
Use One Program to Manage All
Your Information
PowerChurch Plus includes four main application
areas: Membership, Contributions, Accounting,
and Record Keeping – organized according to your
church administration tasks.
Keep Data Entry to a Minimum
Enter a piece of information once and
PowerChurch Plus shares it with other modules. For
example, enter a member’s address in the Family
Mailing List and PowerChurch Plus shares it with
Visitations and Contributions.
Streamline Your Accounting Tasks
The accounting system is a full non-profit fund
accounting system, which means that you don’t
have to try to bend a business general ledger
package to track your different funds. And it is
specifically designed for church use! An easy to
use assistant helps you set your accounting records
up correctly the first time. Other assistants make it
easy to track donor restricted giving. PowerChurch
Plus also accommodates church payroll
requirements, such as social security exemptions
and pastors’ tax-free allowances.
View Member Photographs
Include pictures of individuals and families so you
can see their faces when you view their
records.You can also print pictorial directories so
new staff members can quickly associate names
with faces.
Customize for Canadian Use
PowerChurch Plus has the capability to print
Canadian tax receipts, track reclaimable GST, and
use Canadian specific terminology such as
province and postal code.
Feel Confident With Built-in
Security
For confidentiality, a full security system lets a
System Administrator control each user’s access to
the various modules of PowerChurch Plus.
Increase Your Administrative
Efficiency
All of your church’s information is available at your
fingertips.Keeping records up-to-date is a
snap.You can enter and maintain information
about families and individual members on a single

your church members, you can also record
attendance at church activities and track other

compose HTML formatted e-mail messages, attach
files, and request read receipts on the messages
you send. Save preparation time and postage
costs by e-mailing your contribution
statements.You can also send reports to a person
or a group right from PowerChurch Plus. For
example, e-mail the Balance Sheet report to the
finance committee members so they’ll be ready for
the next meeting.

Memb e r s h i p
The Membership modules record
information about every person in your
congregation so you can serve them
better. Find out who has a birthday or
anniversary approaching. Notice when
someone has not attended in a while
so follow-up can be made. Keep track
of when people served on committees,
the results of outreach visitations, and
when special ministry events like
weddings, funerals and baptisms were
performed.
Family Mailing List
Record the addresses, phone numbers, and other
information about the families who attend your
church. You can then print this information on
reports, mailing labels, Rolodex or note cards. You
can even include a photograph.
Personal Profiles
Keep up-to-date information about individual
members and visitors in personal profiles. A profile
can include a person’s name, photograph, birthday,
e-mail address, and a personal status description
such as member, visitor or friend of the
congregation. Use the customizable code fields to
keep track of information that’s important to your
church, such as how someone joined, who has keys
to the building, occupation, which school they
attend, etc.
Activities and Skills
Record activities within the church such as youth
groups and choirs. Also enter skills that the church
needs, such as musical ability or carpentry. Then
you can identify members with particular abilities as
possible recruits for projects. You can also use this
module to track church office holders like trustees
or board members.
Attendance
Track attendance at church services, Sunday School
classes, committee meetings, and other church
activities. To make data entry easy, you can even
use a barcode scanner to record attendance. You
can also print reports and graphs to analyze
attendance at church functions.
Visitations
Record information about visits made by church
representatives to members and prospective
members. You can also send follow-up mailings to
the people who received a visit.
Ministry Services
Track baptisms, marriages, funerals, and other
kinds of ministry services. Produce related reports,
such as a report to show the number of baptisms
performed over the last year.
