Two Big MinistryOne Announcements
|
|
|
|
MinistryOne Church App is Now FREE!!!
The
powerful church app, MinistryOne, is now
included with your giving account at no additional cost. If you were
paying for MinistryOne, effective 5/1/2020, we started waiving that fee.
If you're using the giving-only version of MinistryOne as your ShelbyNext
Giving App, you can now activate the full-featured version for free.
MinistryOne
Church App Now includes a Member Directory
By
extending MinistryOne's integration with ShelbyNext Membership,
connecting your congregation with a church directory is easier than ever.
Watch the below 'Membership Directory Setup' video to see what it looks
like and how it works.

Software Tips
for Re-Opening Your Church
|
|
|
|
Use the newly added Last Contribution Date in the Advanced
Search along with Last Attended Date to identify those who may need to be
reconnected as you begin to move back to having in person worship
services.
Use
Forms to help register members for limited size services with running
tallies right in the Form. Connect these to Groups in your ShelbyNext
Membership to keep track of who committed to come, then you Check-in to
track who actually came as an additional layer of security.

Maintaining Giving Throughout the Year
A Solution for Disruption
|
|
|
|
Disruption…boy, have we all felt that this year! Our
churches are used to some attendance and giving fluctuation seasonally,
but this has been like nothing this generation of church leaders has
seen. Many of our churches were thrust into a digital space, ready or
not. This digital space is probably not temporary, either. More
messages of hope and truth are available than ever before and in more
formats. Not only did delivery of the message change, but the way
churches receive has changed.

Accept Online Payments Next School Year
|
|
|
|
It is
easy to start using ShelbyNext Giving to accept online payments. Accounts
Receivable already has a portal built and ready for you to activate. As
soon as you create an invoice, it appears in the Portal. Your parents, or
whoever pays the bills, then simply log into your existing website, see
their current charges, and enter the amounts they want to pay.
Those
payments automatically appear under Manage > Payment Processing ready
for you to post to General Ledger.
And, you have
made it easy for the parents of your students to keep track of all fees
and purchases. This approach also saves having to send statements, except
for those who might be a bit slow paying.
