For pastors & church communication teams

Clear announcements.
Striking sermon slides.
More time for ministry.

Prepare announcements, sermon slides and social posts in one calm workspace. Choose one tool or bring all three together. Spend more of your week with people.

Your message. Your church’s voice. You review and approve the final work.

Sunday is coming

You have a message to share.
And a lot on your plate.

Event details arrive in pieces. The announcement still needs a script. The sermon needs slides. You should be able to prepare clear, coordinated communication without spending every spare hour writing and designing.

Three tools. One church’s message.

Get help where your week needs it.

01 / Announce Ready

One event.
A coordinated invitation.

Create announcement scripts people want to respond to. Show why life in your local church matters to them, with a clear invitation carried across emails, social posts and matching graphics.

Built by a Lead Pastor who understands

I know the pressure of creating and communicating content for your church. Sunday keeps coming, even while you’re preparing sermons, caring for people, and sorting through event details.

You know your church. You carry the vision. I built Announce Ready to guide you through preparing clear announcements, graphics, sermon slides, and social posts that help people see why church life matters and take their next step.

Bring your message. Shape it in your church’s voice. Share it with confidence and make more room for the people you’re called to serve.

Before you begin

Clear answers for your team.

Can we choose just one tool?

Yes. Each tool is available separately. Social Studio can also create original posts without an announcement or sermon. Announce Ready handles announcement communication. Sermon Studio handles sermon artwork and slides. Sermon Studio is $39/month on its own or $19/month as an add-on for active Announce Ready subscribers.

Do we need design experience?

The tools guide your inputs and offer curated text styles and sizes. You can edit the content and review the result before exporting. AI-generated work still needs your team’s review.

How do we add Scripture?

Paste Scripture text you have permission to use into Sermon Studio, or export matching backgrounds and add verses using your church’s installed translations in ProPresenter. There is no automatic Bible lookup.

Does it connect directly to ProPresenter?

It uses file exports and imports, not a direct API connection. Export an editable PowerPoint presentation or PNG backgrounds, then import into your presentation software. Check your ProPresenter version, fonts, and screen dimensions before a service.

Can we create in Spanish?

Yes. The app offers English and Spanish interfaces and content creation. Your team should review wording, names, and church-specific language before sharing.

What happens if we cancel?

Access continues through the paid subscription period. After access to a tool ends, its subscription projects are available to view and export for 30 days before deletion. Export the files you want to keep.

Less scrambling. A clearer message.

Prepare with confidence.
Make room for ministry.
