Coming soon…

 

Ministry Scheduler Pro, a powerful and user-friendly software designed to streamline the scheduling and management of volunteers in various ministries. Starting with our Worship Assistants ministry team third quarter schedule (July – September), we will put the system to the test, and if successful, then role it out to other ministries.

 

Ministry Scheduler Pro, also known as MSP can create automatic schedules, giving you  access to your own schedule via an app, you can mark which days you are not available, you can request a sub for a shift that you can no longer make, it will send reminders of the ministries you are scheduled for, and lots more.

 

Be on the lookout for additional information soon and an invitation to register, starting with the Worship Assistants.

 

If you have any questions, please contact Paul Shane paulkshane@gmail.com
