Reach more people and connect with first-time guests using Tithely Messaging: A church text messaging service and email tool built for your church or ministry.
Text messages are a super effective way to reach your church members or community in a matter of seconds. Sending an SMS text can actually build a greater sense of fellowship during the week. Church messages can be encouraging and inspiring for members who need a quick pick-me-up during the day.
The best part? SMS messaging doesn’t have to be expensive. In fact, neither does email. Both text messages and emails are quick, cost-effective options to connect with people immediately.
Set up specific keywords that can trigger and add contacts to a particular list, gather their updated contact details, and even trigger a follow-up sequence. For example, if a guest at your church texted the word 'NEW,' the system could add them to a list called "Visitors" and start a follow-up sequence that begins to engage the guest.
Tithely Messaging allows your church to communicate with visitors, members, and regular attendees through SMS and email and those people can then communicate back to your church.
Using Messaging, you can create and send follow-ups to groups of people using Blasts. Send a message to multiple contacts or to a list of people at the same time

Interested in making your life a bit easier? Churches are switching to Tithe.ly Messaging so all their church texting and email communication are under one roof, allowing them to simplify ministry, build deeper relationships, save money, and maximize time. With Tithe.ly Messaging, text messaging for churches and emailing for churches are part of the same easy-to-use tool.
Powerful AI features allow church admins that build drag and drop emails to use artificial intelligence to generate quality text and graphics. For example, you can enter in prompts like “meadow” to automatically generate photos of meadows they can use in the email. Or allow AI to suggest improvements to make your email headings and call to actions more catchy and creative.
This will help churches level up the quality of their emails and make connecting with church members easier than ever!
