ParishPulse

ParishPulse is a mobile + web app that replaces the messy mix of bulletin PDFs, Facebook groups, email chains, and last-minute pulpit announcements. Parishes get a simple admin console to post Mass times, confession schedules, holy day changes, ministry events, volunteer needs, and emergency alerts. Parishioners get a clean feed, calendar sync, push notifications, and a “What’s happening this week?” view that’s actually accurate. It also includes lightweight RSVP and volunteer sign-ups so ministries can stop chasing people manually. This is a traditional app (not AI-first) because the real problem is operational discipline and distribution, not content generation. The product wins if it’s dead-simple for parish staff, works for older users, and doesn’t require everyone to create yet another social account. Expect slow sales cycles and heavy onboarding, but strong retention once embedded.
