What you can do with Sheptera

Every feature below is live in the application today.

Member management

Every member, fully known.

Complete member profiles with photo, contact details, membership status, household and joined date.

  • Member photo and unique member ID
  • Phone, email, address and city
  • Membership status — active, visitor, archived
  • Household link and joined date

Why it matters: Leaders stop hunting through notebooks and spreadsheets — one search finds the person and everything about them.

Spiritual & membership information

Track the faith journey, not just the name.

Faith milestones sit alongside personal details on every profile.

  • Born again year
  • Baptism status and baptism date
  • Marital status, occupation and date of birth
  • Household role and membership date

Why it matters: Pastors can see at a glance who is ready for baptism, who to disciple next and how the church is growing spiritually.

Church giving

Record every contribution in seconds.

A single form captures tithes, offerings, donations, pledge payments and special giving.

  • Giving type, amount and payment method
  • Select the giver or record anonymously
  • Link to a giving campaign or an existing pledge
  • Automatic, permanent receipt numbers — issued by the system, never edited or reused

Why it matters: The accounts office records giving accurately at the point it happens, with numbered receipts ready to print.

Giving & financial overview

Know where the church stands.

Live totals and a full, searchable transaction history across every campaign.

  • Given this month, total recorded and tithes totals
  • Filterable ledger by date, method, campaign and status
  • An immutable ledger — contributions are voided with a reason, never deleted
  • Pledge balances and status derived from the payments themselves

Why it matters: Church boards get trustworthy numbers instantly, and finance officers close the books without rebuilding spreadsheets.

Statements & reports

Answer any question, on paper or in a spreadsheet.

Printable statements for members and campaigns, plus nine ready-made reports.

  • Pledge statements: pledged, paid, outstanding and full payment history
  • Campaign statements combining every pledge a member holds
  • Printable, numbered giving receipts on A4 or Letter
  • Reports on members, attendance, giving, pledges, campaigns, ministries, groups, registrations and follow-ups — each exportable to CSV

Why it matters: The accounts office can account for every kwacha to a member, a board or an auditor without touching a spreadsheet.

Families & groups

See the church as it really gathers.

Members organised into households, ministries and small groups.

  • Households with address, size and primary contact
  • Members linked to a family in one step
  • Cell groups and bible studies with leader, day, time and venue
  • Group membership visible from every profile

Why it matters: Pastoral care follows relationships — leaders know which home and which group each person belongs to.

Works in any phone browser — no app to install.

The same workspace, laid out for a phone — usable from the back of the sanctuary wherever you have a connection.

  • Responsive dashboard, member profiles and giving ledger
  • Slide-out navigation across every module
  • Record a contribution or look someone up on the spot

Why it matters: Ushers, ministry leaders and finance staff work during the service, not after it.

Member photos, taken on the spot.

Upload photo offers two ways to add a face to a name.

  • Take a photo with the device camera
  • Choose an existing photo from the gallery or files
  • JPG, PNG or WebP up to 3 MB, shown on the profile

Why it matters: New members are recognised by name and face from their very first Sunday.

The dashboard opens with the numbers church leaders ask for first.

  • Total members, visitors this month and attendance today
  • Pending follow-ups and upcoming events
  • Weekly tithes, offerings and total giving (Sun–Sat)
  • Giving overview for this month, year to date and all time

Why it matters: Leadership sees the health of the church at a glance, before the meeting starts.
