Introducing Called+: Elevating Ministry Engagement to New Heights

Technology can play a powerful role in bringing our people closer together, especially in our faith communities. That's why we’re so excited to share that we're launching Called+.

To get started with Called+,be sure log into Called on your desktop web browser. 

As someone who's worked closely with church leaders, I know how challenging it can be to keep track of everyone in your community and make sure no one feels left behind. Called+ makes this easier by helping you better connect with your members, understand how your community is doing, and spot opportunities to help people feel more involved.

Whether you're leading a small group or managing a large church, Called+ is here to help you focus less on the administrative work and more on what really matters - building meaningful relationships within your faith community.

As ministry leaders, we all face the challenge of keeping our communities connected beyond weekend services. How do we foster deeper relationships, track spiritual growth, and ensure no one falls through the cracks? Called+ is our answer to these pressing questions.

Built on the foundation of our standard Called platform, Called+ offers enhanced tools specifically crafted for parish leaders, pastors, ministry directors, and multi-church leaders. It's not just about staying in touch—it's about truly knowing your people, where they are on their faith journey, and furthering discipleship.

In this article, I’ll walk you through what you can expect with Called+, its core features, and how it will make community building in your church or ministry a lot simpler. 

Knowing Your Flock: CRM Tools Reimagined for Ministry

At the heart of Called+ is our powerful yet intuitive people management solution. Imagine having a comprehensive view of each member's journey:

• Detailed profiles that go beyond basic information
• Tags to quickly identify new members or those who might need extra attention
• The ability to add public and private notes, ensuring personalized care between leaders
• Easy export options to import member data into your existing systems

This isn't just data—it's a pathway to more meaningful connections and targeted discipleship. 

Engagement That Resonates: Enhanced Chat Features

Communication is key in any community, and Called+ takes it to the next level in multiple ways:

• Create impactful announcements with custom calls-to-action 
• Similarly, share events directly in chat, complete with RSVP functionality, for the purpose of driving turnout and attendance
• Enable leader-only chat for streamlined team communication - this enables leaders of larger communities to be the only ones who can post in the main community feed.

News Post to Email: Engage Members Who Don’t Engage In A Group

We realize that you have members who don’t like most digital communication because of a variety of reasons. Maybe they have a “dumb” phone, aren’t interested in another group chat, or maybe they’re older and aren’t very tech savvy. 

Regardless of the reason, you still need to contact them.

Now in Called+, when you create a news post, we automatically send that post as an email to all within that corresponding community, whether they are in Called or not. When adding new members to your community, you’ll have the ability to upload emails as well as other information ensuring your message is delivered to their best email.

These features aren't just bells and whistles—they're tools to create vibrant, interactive spaces where faith can flourish.

Insights That Inspire Action

Ministry isn't just about numbers, but understanding your community's health can lead to transformative actions. Our insights dashboard provides:

• At-a-glance metrics on community engagement, such as new members and what does activity took place on
• Lists of new and potentially inactive members, ensuring no one gets left behind

These insights empower you to make data-driven decisions while staying true to your true mission—making disciples. 

A Vision for Deeper Discipleship

Called+ isn't just a platform—it's a partner in your ministry. Whether you're leading a single church or overseeing multiple churches, our goal is to help you:

• Foster deeper connections within your community
• Empower your leadership team with powerful, easy-to-use engagement tools
• Save time on administrative work so you can focus on what truly matters—ministering to your people

We believe that by providing these tools, we're not just helping you manage a community—we're partnering with you to lead others to Christ and make disciples.
