Your volunteers are burning out because you're placing them wrong.
If you love your church but the same 20% carry everything — this is the fix. MinistryAlign isn't management software. It's a living reflection of your church — every passion, personality, gift, and season — so you can finally see the health of the body you're shepherding. Every member also gets My Walk, so their inner life and their serving life stay connected.
MinistryAlign Basic from $29/mo — first 3 people free, no card. MinistryAlign Complete from $89/mo.

Inside MinistryAlign
See your people, teams, and church clearly.
One connected view of member design, team health, and the places that need your attention.
We're not another ChMS. We're a mirror for the body.
Management software organizes what your church does. MinistryAlign reflects who your church is — so pastors lead from understanding, not from a spreadsheet.
Church management software
- Tracks attendance & giving
- Schedules volunteers into slots
- Reports on activity
- Runs your operations
MinistryAlign
- Reflects passions, gifts, and design
- Shows who thrives where — and why
- Reveals health, burnout, and coverage
- Mirrors your body back to you
You can't shepherd what you can't see.
These aren't operational problems. They're visibility problems — and more management won't fix them. Reflection will.
20% of people do 80% of the work
The same faithful few burn out year after year while gifted members sit on the bench.
Leaders guess who fits where
Placement defaults to availability instead of design — square pegs, round holes.
No visibility into ministry health
Coverage gaps, succession risk, and stale assessments stay invisible until something breaks.
Four reflections. One honest picture of your church.
Passions, DISC, all 13 spiritual gifts, and 100+ skills — not to file people into slots, but to reflect the design God already put in the room. Pastors and volunteer coordinators can also read the volunteer management page for the church-office view.
Passions
What stirs their heart — the people and causes they genuinely care about.
See examples →
DISC personality
How they're wired to think, relate, and respond — natural, under pressure, and perceived.
See examples →
All 13 spiritual gifts
Each member's top biblical gifts — so they serve from strength, not obligation.
See examples →
Skills & vocations
100+ practical skills — from worship tech to trades, languages, and care — so leaders can recruit the right hands, not just the willing ones.

More than matching
Placement is the start. MinistryAlign keeps going — so leaders aren't stitching five tools together to run a healthy team.
AI-generated Ministry Blueprints
Every team gets an identity, strengths, gaps, and a who-to-recruit list — generated from the actual people on it.
Skills-aware sub-roles
Define the real seats inside a ministry (audio, camera, lyrics, greeter lead) and recruit by required vs. preferred skills — not vibes.
Calendar & locations
Recurring services, campuses, and rooms — so scheduling lives with the people, not in a separate app.
My Walk — for every member
A daily rhythm — verse, faithful moments, one next step — that connects each member's inner life to how they serve.
Anonymous encouragement
Leaders send one-tap, anonymous notes that show up on a member's dashboard — quiet shepherding at scale.
Engagement pulse & health
Quiet signals — journals, completions, encouragement received — roll up into a single ministry-health score per team.
Included in every tier — Small, Growing, Large, and Multi-site.

Frequently asked questions
Is MinistryAlign a ChMS replacement?
No. MinistryAlign is placement and reflection software. It does not replace your church management system. Use it alongside a ChMS or spreadsheet — those track who is available; MinistryAlign reflects who each person is and where they fit.
What's the difference between MinistryAlign Basic and MinistryAlign Complete?
MinistryAlign Basic is matching only: share one link, people answer with no account, and you get a Fit Matrix of who fits which team. MinistryAlign Complete adds member accounts, ministry health, schedules, tasks and goals, insights, messaging, and My Walk.
Is MinistryAlign only for big churches?
No. Most churches start on MinistryAlign Basic — first 3 people free, then paid Basic from $29/month. MinistryAlign Complete Small is $89/month for churches up to 150 active members. Growing (400), Large (1,200), and Multi-site cover larger churches.
How is this different from a spreadsheet or our ChMS?
Spreadsheets and ChMS tools track who is available. MinistryAlign reflects who each person is — passions, DISC wiring, and 13 spiritual gifts — then ranks ministry fit. Different job. Not a ChMS replacement.
How long does the assessment take members?
About 12–15 minutes. Members receive an archetype profile, top spiritual gifts, DISC blend, and ministry-fit recommendations.
Do you integrate with Planning Center, Breeze, or Rock?
Planning Center: yes — one-way OAuth import of people. Subsplash: a public link handoff so members leave the in-app browser. You can also upload a CSV exported from Planning Center, Subsplash, or Breeze. There is no Rock RMS integration today.
What about privacy?
Assessment data belongs to your church. We do not sell data. Journal entries are never shown to leaders. Optional journal lock adds end-to-end encryption to journal entries only — not the whole product.
Is MinistryAlign end-to-end encrypted?
No. End-to-end encryption applies only to the optional journal lock in Settings. When you turn it on, journal entries and private moment notes are encrypted on your device before they leave it. The rest of the product is not end-to-end encrypted.
Is there a free trial?
MinistryAlign Basic has no trial clock — your first 3 people are free and no card is needed. MinistryAlign Complete includes a 30-day trial. No credit card to start.
What is My Walk?
My Walk is MinistryAlign's personal companion: a weekly verse, four rings (Clarity, Rhythm, Action, Connection), assessments, and a private journal. Individuals can use it free. Church members get the same walk alongside placement.
Are ministry blueprints written by a person?
No. Ministry blueprints are AI-generated from the people actually on the team — identity, strengths, gaps, and who to recruit next. They stay labeled AI-generated.
Who manages it day-to-day?
One church admin can run it — often a connections or discipleship lead. The product surfaces coverage gaps, succession risk, and stale assessments so nobody has to dig.
What does it cost?
MinistryAlign Basic is first 3 people free, then paid Basic from $29/mo by how many people you assess. MinistryAlign Complete starts at $89/mo (Small, up to 150), Growing $149/mo (up to 400), Large $269/mo (up to 1,200), and Multi-site for anything bigger. Annual plans get one month free.
