For Planning Center churches

Less retyping. More follow-up.

Church Rocket builds apps for churches that run on Planning Center. Connections by Church Rocket handles the paper connect card: scanning it, and matching it to the people already in Planning Center People. More is on the way.

Available now

Connections

Paper connect cards into Planning Center People, without the Monday retyping.

Connections by Church Rocket is a handwritten connect card scanner for Planning Center. Photograph a stack of cards. Connections reads the handwriting, matches each guest to the people and households already in Planning Center, and puts every card in front of your staff for review. Nothing is written until someone approves it.

Free during the beta, with fifteen beta places. Beta full? Join the waitlist.

What Connections sees, and what you see
The Connections review screen. On the left, the photo of Jordan Reyes's handwritten card. On the right, the name read from it and one match already in Planning Center, Jordan Reyes, found by phone number.
The real review screen. Jordan was already in Planning Center, so approving updates that record instead of making a duplicate.

More to come

Available today, free, with no account: the connect card builder designs a paper connect card in your church's name and downloads a print-ready PDF.

Built by someone who does the work

Church Rocket was started by Chris Dewar, an executive pastor who carries responsibility for his church's operations, IT, and data. These apps began as tools for his own staff. They are built on the same rule he holds his own systems to: Planning Center stays the record, and a person signs off on anything that touches it.

How we treat your church's data

  • Planning Center is the only sign-in. Your Planning Center permissions decide who gets in.
  • Each church's records are separated from every other church's at the database level.
  • Your administrators choose how long card images are kept: deleted right away, or after 7, 30, or 365 days.
  • We name every service that handles your data in our privacy policy.
