Show Sponsor: Planning Center

So let’s talk about Planning Center. For those of you who are old enough, we often refer to worship leading eras as the pre-Planning Center days and the Planning Center days. It’s that game-changing and that important.

I talk about Planning Center pretty often on here, and if you’re a worship pastor, you might be wondering what more there is to Planning Center for you beyond worship planning and scheduling.

And there is.

Did you know that with a subscription to Planning Center Services you also have free access to another incredibly powerful product People?

With People, you can do things like create a volunteer pipeline to get new volunteers through their application process and then assigned to a team!

In People you can create an online form to get new volunteers, a workflow to help you walk them step-by-step through the training process, and then automatically add them to Services so you can get them scheduled!

And that’s just one way you use Planning Center People, so give it a try! Learn more at planningcenter.com/pipeline

And remember, if your church is looking for tools to help with things like giving, small group chat, event signups, live-streaming, and custom reporting, Planning Center has tools for that too, so let your church administrator know!
