Everything Holdfast does

What you get

Everything, in one place

Replaces the website builder, the giving platform, the church app, the texting service, and the check-in kiosk — with one login and one bill.

Edit it yourself

Click a section, change the words, hit publish. No page builder to learn, no HTML, no waiting on the one person who knows how.

A real app, no app store

Your congregation taps 'Add to Home Screen' and your church is on their phone — icon, notifications, offline. Nothing to submit, nothing to maintain.

Stop retyping the bulletin

Plan Sunday's running order once — songs, readings, who is doing what. Bring last week over and change what changed. It prints as your bulletin, emails to the team, and opens on a tablet at the desk with a clock that tells you how far over you are running.

Stop chasing volunteers

Ask your sound desk, your greeters, your readers — one tap each, from the email, with nothing to sign in to. Yes and no both come straight back to the rota, and whoever said yes is printed on Sunday's bulletin.

Giving that actually converts

One-time or recurring, on any device, in under a minute. Donors can cover the processing fee — most do.

And the rest of it

  • Sermons in one pasteDrop in a YouTube link. We pull the thumbnail, build the page, add it to your library, and update your podcast feed.
  • Your CCLI report, already countedEvery song you have sung, how many times, and on which Sundays — added up from your own running orders. Put the licence numbers in once; download the spreadsheet when the return falls due.
  • Your site keeps the church calendarViolet through Advent and Lent, gold at Christmas and Easter, red at Pentecost — and back to your own colours afterwards, without anybody remembering to change it.
  • Enter an event onceWednesday youth group repeats forever. Registration asks whatever you need — ticket type, T-shirt size, a meal — and each choice can carry a price.
  • Reach every phone in secondsIce storm on Sunday morning? One announcement lands on every installed phone before anyone leaves the house.
  • Attendance without a clipboardPut a code on the screen and people check in from their own phone. Children get a pickup code that is redeemed at the door, recording who collected them.
  • One list of peopleConnection cards, event signups, and giving all land on the same person record. The directory is opt-in, and each member chooses what appears beside their own name.
  • An AI greeter, 24/7Answers 'what time is church?' and 'what about my kids?' at 11pm on a Saturday — from your real service times, never made up.
  • Works with what you havePlanning Center, YouTube, Stripe, Mailchimp, Google Analytics. Connect once and stop double-entering.
  • 24 designed looksPick a theme, swap the colors and fonts to match your building and your people. Change your mind any Tuesday.
  • Found on GoogleFast pages, proper metadata, and church schema markup so you show up when someone searches 'churches near me'.

Looks

24 complete themes — colors, typefaces, spacing, and button shapes, all designed to go together. Then change any of it to match your building and your people.

Sanctuary

Warm stone and deep evergreen. Historic without feeling dated.

Harbor

Deep navy and sea glass. Crisp, calm, trustworthy.

Vine

Earthy clay and olive. Great for church plants and rural congregations.

Ember

High-contrast charcoal with a warm spark. Modern, youth-forward.

Chapel

Ivory, ink, and a single royal accent. Quiet and confident.

Meadow

Fresh sage and cream. Bright, hopeful, family-friendly.

Cathedral

Aubergine, gold, and stone. Liturgical and unhurried.

Coastline

Sun-bleached blue and sand. Relaxed and welcoming.

Monolith

Near-black and bone with an electric accent. Bold and urban.

Hearth

Brick, butter, and warm wood. Feels like a potluck.

Midnight

Deep indigo dark mode with a cool glow. Striking on phones.

Linen

Soft neutrals and a dusty rose. Understated and modern.

Assembly

Massive type, hard edges, black and bone. Confident and completely unfussy.

Nocturne

Near-black with a warm ember glow. Made for churches that meet at night.

Vaulted

Deep aubergine, gold leaf, and a high serif. Liturgical without being dusty.

Riso

Two-colour print energy — electric blue and coral on paper white.

High Desert

Sunbaked clay, sage, and wide open space. Warm without being soft.

Signal

Stark white, heavy black type, one electric accent. Reads like a poster.

Alabaster

Bone white, deep ink, and a whisper of clay. Gallery-quiet and very expensive-looking.

Evergreen

Forest green and aged brass. Steady, rooted, generations-deep.

Tidewater

Washed teal and oyster shell. Airy, coastal, easy to be in.

Vesper

Ink-blue dusk with candlelight. A dark theme that still feels reverent.

Prairie

Wheat, denim, and open sky. Plainspoken and genuinely warm.

Quarry

Cut stone and a single amber seam. Architectural and unshowy.

Plus 30+ hand-picked Google Fonts — swap your headline typeface without touching a stylesheet.
