Good Shepherd Ministries needed a contact-sharing app for its growing congregation. This customer case explores how clergies and other officials benefited from a contact management app to ensure timely and effective communication for community outreach, pastoral care support groups, and volunteer coordination.
Good Shepherd Ministries serves a diverse congregation of over 500 parishioners. The church routinely conducts programs, including food drives, youth mentorship, and volunteer services. The congregation involves a dynamic number of members from different age groups and backgrounds, necessitating tailored communication and engagement strategies.
The church leadership, including the pastor, administrators, and volunteer coordinators, seek an efficient solution to manage member information and improve communication. They need a contact-sharing app compatible with both iOS and Android to facilitate seamless information exchange for their soup kitchen, youth catechism, and fundraising activities for charity.
After testing a few free versions of contact-sharing apps, they found limitations in the number of users and contacts that could be shared. Upgrading to the full versions incurs significant costs, which they try to avoid.
However, without a reliable contact management system, they face data inconsistency issues and occasionally use outdated contact information. This leads to communication breakdowns, missed meetings, and disorganized events.
Good Shepherd Ministries organizes activities such as a soup kitchen, street outreach, and youth-based programs. To effectively manage these efforts, facilitators need to group volunteers based on demographics, interests, and potential for character development.
The contact management app they require must be user-friendly, accommodating the fluctuating number of volunteers and the challenge of coordinating schedules. Additionally, the ability to share notes about each contact would greatly aid in better profiling.
However, the free versions of contact management apps they have previously tried have overly complex user interfaces, making group creation tedious.
