Jamie Dunlop · Associate Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church

Pray through the whole congregation.

A quiet daily rhythm — not a social feed. Walk through your membership at your own pace, see birthdays coming up, and keep private prayer notes that stay yours alone.

  • Systematic prayer — work through the roster over about 14, 30, or 60 days
  • Birthdays & family — optional context on each card so prayer stays personal
  • Private My Prayer notes — encrypted on your device before storage; not readable by others

Finally remember everyone's name.

The Learn feature turns your directory into a name-learning game — so new members and long-timers alike can put faces to names.

  • Play rounds — see a photo, choose the right name from four options
  • New member mode — focus on people who joined in the last 1–12 months
  • Track your best — personal high scores per category and round size

A private directory that stays in sync.

Browse photos, families, and contact info — just your church, for your church. Planning Center remains your system of record; Church Directory syncs the roster so members don’t re-enter names.

  • Syncs names, photos, birthdays, and family groups from Planning Center People
  • Automatic sync about every four hours — church admins can also run Sync now
  • iPhone and Android apps keep the directory available offline; the web app needs internet to load the roster and save edits
