Communicating with church members: announcements, email and website
The announcement reaches the right people, on the channel each person chose. Instead of asking every leader to forward a message, the team writes once and picks the group.
Write once, choose who receives it
You choose the group, the segment or the whole church, and decide whether the announcement goes by notification, by email or both. Announcements can be scheduled. Each person sets their preferences, and a quiet-hours window respects their rest.
What the church wants to say, where the church is looking
News and banners appear in the app and on the website. Forms create the person, open a task and alert the team. The “I’m new” template connects the visitor to the church the same day.
The app and website with your church’s name and colour
The app installs from the browser, without app stores, and carries the church’s name, logo and colour. The website is edited by pages and blocks in the same dashboard, and anyone who doesn’t use the app still gets the email. The branded app and your own domain come with the Grow plan and above.
Who uses communication
Two roles work here. Each page shows the week of the person using it.
More ways to reach the church
Features that support communication.
See how each notification announcement went, so you can adjust what you write.
Write today and leave the announcement set for the right time. Save the ones that repeat, like the service reminder, and reuse them.
Highlight the month’s event in the app and on the website with a banner, and publish the church’s news.
Questions can depend on the previous answer, and the form accepts files (PDF or image) and signatures. The response creates the person, opens a task and alerts the team.
Messages that go out by themselves when something happens, such as a welcome to a visitor or follow-up for someone who has missed three services in a row. You can stop the send if the person has already replied or turned up.
The assistant proposes drafts of announcements, emails and posts, and summarises report figures. You always review the text before using it, and you don’t type personal data into the request.
Each member has a card with a QR code in the app.
Frequently asked questions
Which channels can I use to reach members?
App notifications, email, news, banners and the church website. You can write an announcement and choose whether it goes by notification, by email or both. Someone who doesn’t use the app still receives the email.
How do notifications reach members?
Each person allows notifications on their phone, and email goes out under the church’s domain. News and banners are published on the dashboard and appear in the app and on the website.
Can I email the whole church?
Yes, from the Grow plan. The campaign can be reviewed by another person before it goes out and carries an unsubscribe link. You can schedule the send for the right time.
What happens when someone fills in a form?
It depends on what you set up. The form can create the person’s record, open a task for the team and alert them. The “I’m new” template already does this for visitors.
Do members decide what they want to receive?
Yes. Each person has notification preferences and there is a quiet-hours window. Brado respects them when sending, so announcements are welcome and not intrusive.
Can I have the church website in Brado?
Yes. The editor builds the site from pages and blocks, using the events and groups the church already records on the dashboard. Your own domain is included from the Grow plan.
