Free for 30 days · no card needed

The church office's week, done in one place.

Type each announcement once. ChapelWave puts it in the printed bulletin and the phone version, on your website, and on Facebook and Instagram, and your pastor approves it all with one tap.

Bring over your current bulletin and website in a few clicks, keep your web address, and get personal help whenever you want it.

Type it once. It goes everywhere.

If you're the one who puts the bulletin together, you know the routine: the same announcement typed into the bulletin, the website and Facebook, then waiting on approval before you can print. ChapelWave does the copying for you.

Built for the church office without a communications director

Most small and mid-sized churches don't have a marketing team. They have one secretary, a pastor or a volunteer doing it all, often part-time. ChapelWave is for them.

This is you if…

  • You type the same announcement into the bulletin, the website and Facebook
  • Thursday is a scramble to get the bulletin approved and printed
  • Your website is out of date because changing it means calling someone
  • You'd rather spend your time with people than with software

Start where you are. We'll bring it over.

No retyping. ChapelWave reads what you already have and fills everything in for you. You check it over and click Add.

📄

Your bulletin, read for you

Upload last Sunday's bulletin as a PDF, a Word file or even a phone photo. In about a minute your order of worship and announcements are filled in, dates and times included. ChapelWave can match its look too: the fold, color, fonts and headings your congregation is used to.

Your website, brought over

Type your current website's address. In a couple of minutes your staff, ministries, service times, pages and photos come over to your new site, along with the rest of what your church relies on.

Nothing goes out unapproved

Bulletins and posts wait for the person you choose. Change something after approval and it asks again.

🔒

Your people stay private

Prayer requests print only when you say so, the volunteer page never shows who signed up, and you can download or delete your data any time.

🤝

Works with what you have

Keep Planning Center, Breeze or whatever you use for membership and giving records. ChapelWave handles the weekly communication around them.

Safe, private and yours

Churches are rightly careful with their people's information. Here's how ChapelWave looks after it.

🏛️

Your content is yours

Everything your church enters belongs to your church. Download all of it any time. We never sell it, show ads or use tracking cookies.

💾

Backed up every night

A checked copy of everything is made every night, and the server's whole disk is also copied daily. Your data is kept in the United States.

🔐

Locked down

Encrypted connections, scrambled passwords, optional two-step sign-in, and sign-in links that work once and expire.

🛟

If something goes wrong

We're alerted automatically. Printed bulletins and posts already scheduled aren't affected, and we read every email you send.

Questions

What happens after the 30 free days?

Nothing is charged automatically. If you'd like to keep going, subscribe from the Billing page; if not, your church becomes read-only and you can still view and download everything you made.

Do we have to replace our church management software?

No. ChapelWave works alongside it. It handles the bulletin, posts, website, events and volunteers, and can bring in events from Planning Center Calendar.

Can we keep our current web address?

Yes. Keep yourchurch.org. We'll help point it to your new ChapelWave website, your email keeps working, and your church keeps owning it.

Do we have to retype our bulletin and website?

No. Upload your current bulletin (a PDF, Word file or photo) and type your website's address, and ChapelWave fills in your order of worship, announcements, staff, ministries, pages, photos, sermon videos, giving links and upcoming events for you to check.

Will you help us get set up?

Yes, personally: setup, moving your current website over, connecting Facebook, Instagram and Planning Center, and ongoing support. It's included with every plan.

Does anything get posted without our approval?

No. Nothing is printed or posted until the person you choose approves it.

Will it print on our office printer?

Yes. Most styles use ordinary Letter paper. There are also Legal and 11 × 17 options for printers that take them.

Can we cancel any time?

Yes. Plans are month to month, and you can cancel from the Billing page.
