A Sunday with Organiza
From the moment a leader builds their team to the moment the pastor checks on how their volunteers are doing.
The leader builds the team
For each service, they set how many people each role needs: two vocalists, one guitar, one usher. With a single tap, Organiza suggests people who are free, know that role and have served the least.
If someone is traveling, paused or already serving at that time in another ministry, Organiza tells you before you schedule them.
Everyone responds from their phone
The volunteer gets their link on WhatsApp, sees who they'll be serving with and taps I can or I can't. If they can't, they pick a reason so their leader knows why.
They can also mark the days they can never make it (say, Wednesdays because of work) or a week they'll be away, and they won't be scheduled on those days.
No one burns out without you noticing
A load light shows who has room, who's at their limit and who's overloaded, counting their shifts and how many weeks in a row they've been serving.
And on the other side: who isn't serving yet but has potential, based on their discipleship progress, their skills and their time at the church.
The pastor sees the whole picture
A report for the pastoral team: how many are serving, how the ministries are doing, why people couldn't make it, who's new, who was baptized and who's growing in discipleship. Print it or download it to Excel.
Banda
Your worship team's music stand
Banda comes with Organiza: songs with chords, the order for each service and who plays what, on each musician's phone or tablet.
- The leader builds the order and chooses the key of each song for that Sunday.
- Each musician adjusts their own key and capo just for themselves, without changing anything for anyone else.
- Paste the song however it comes: with the chords above or in ChordPro. Banda places them over each syllable.
- Lyrics only for singers, Nashville numbers, Do Re Mi, two columns and dark screen.
- Swipe or use a Bluetooth pedal to change songs, and download the service to play offline.
Banda doesn't come with copyrighted songs: your team types or pastes its own, and your church is responsible for its licenses. For your report, Banda gives you the usage list.
Everything it includes
What big churches use, made simple and with no subscription to pay.
Private pastoral notes
Only people with pastoral permission can see them. They're stored encrypted, and there's a record of who opened them.
Ministries and roles
Each ministry with its leader, its roles and who can do what. Skills like Musician, Kitchen or Logistics.
Shifts with confirmation
"I can" or "I can't," with a reason. Suggested replacements when someone cancels.
Load light
Shifts over 4 weeks and weeks in a row. Pauses with a return date, so people can rest.
Availability
Travel dates or a set day every week. No one schedules you when you can't.
A calendar that keeps things in order
Whoever builds the calendar marks which ministries each event needs, and each leader decides who serves. Two links for Google Calendar and the iPhone: the church and your service.
Discipleship
Steps in order or standalone courses. Who's on each one, who's next and who's ready for more responsibility.
Visitor QR
A poster with your church's QR code. Whoever scans it leaves their details, and your team follows up by WhatsApp.
Sign-up link
Send a link and each person enters their basic details. It arrives marked to review, and no one gets duplicated.
Cell and home groups
Each group with its leader, assistant leader and host, day, time and address. Plus who isn't in one yet.
Dashboards
One for the pastor: who's worn out, who hasn't been scheduled, and which dates need people. And one for each ministry's leaders.
Ministry pause and archiving
Pause someone in certain ministries only. Archive without deleting: their contact info and history stay.
My ministries
Everyone sees where they serve and the ministries they lead. The menu only shows what each person needs.
As an app
Install it on your phone, tablet or computer and open it with one tap. No app store, and it barely takes up space.
Banda for worship
Songs with chords, the order for each service and each musician's key. Works with a pedal and offline.
One account
The Digital Church account works for Organiza, Banda and Proyecta: the same email and the same password.
Backup
Download a file with everything from your church and, if something gets lost, upload it to get it back.
Excel in and out
Upload your list with the template and review it before saving. Download your whole database anytime.
Who does what
Just three roles, so any church can understand it: the office organizes, each leader schedules their own team and only Pastoral sees pastoral matters.
| Role | What they can do |
|---|---|
| Pastoral | Everything, including pastoral notes and prayer requests. Only this role can give the Pastoral role, delete the church or restore a backup. |
| Administrative | The office: people, ministries, volunteers, access, settings and reports. Everything except pastoral matters. |
| Volunteer | Sees their shifts, answers whether they can serve and marks the days they can't. If they're a leader or co-leader of a ministry, they manage it. |
Leader and co-leader are positions inside each ministry: the office names the leader, and the leader names their co-leaders. Creating church events is a separate checkbox. Visitors and people who don't serve yet don't need an account.
Your people's data, well cared for
People share sensitive things at church. Organiza is built to respect them.
- The data belongs to your churchNo one else sees it or uses it. Download it to Excel anytime, and you can delete the account.
- Each church kept separateOne church never sees another church's people. Everyone signs in with their own email and password.
- Encrypted pastoral notesThey're stored encrypted and only people with the Pastoral role can open them. Every time someone reads them, it's recorded.
- Activity logThe pastor sees who added, changed or deleted something, and when.
FAQ
Is it really free?
Yes. Organiza is part of Digital Church, free tools for the church, like Proyecta. There's no paid plan and no ads. The code is open source (MIT license).
Do visitors or members who don't serve need an account?
No. They're in People and, if they came through the QR code, in New people. Accounts are for people who serve or lead: when someone starts serving, their leader or the office invites them through WhatsApp.
Do volunteers have to install anything?
No. You send them their invitation on WhatsApp, they create a password and sign in from their phone's browser. If they want, they can add it to their home screen like an app.
How does it connect with Google Calendar?
Each person copies a link from "My account" and adds it in Google Calendar (Add calendar → From URL). There are two: one for the whole church and one for your service (your shifts and your teams' rehearsals). It updates on its own; Google takes a few hours to show changes. On the iPhone you add it with one tap.
I already have my member list in Excel. Can I upload it?
Yes. Download the template or upload your own file: Organiza finds the columns by their names, shows you what will happen with each row and doesn't duplicate anyone who's already there.
Who decides who joins each ministry?
The church office (the Pastoral and Administrative roles). Each ministry leader schedules their team and, if they're short on people, asks for them through Organiza. That way no one ends up in two ministries without someone noticing.
What if my church doesn't have a discipleship process?
It's optional. If you have one, it helps you see who's ready to serve in more ways and lets you set requirements (for example, child protection training to serve in the kids' ministry).
Does it send emails?
If your church sets it up, Organiza sends email notices for invitations and new shifts. If not, everything can be sent through WhatsApp with one tap.
Does Banda come with songs?
It doesn't come with copyrighted songs. Your team types or pastes them with their chords, and they stay just for your church. When turning on Banda, your church confirms it's responsible for its licenses (for example, CCLI); the number is optional. Banda gives you a list of how many times each one was sung for your report.
Does the same account work for Proyecta?
Yes. It's the Digital Church account: with the same email you sign in to Organiza and Banda, and you connect Proyecta to keep its backup in the cloud (songs, orders and settings) and bring in services from Banda. Videos and images stay on each computer.
Can I have more than one church or congregation?
Yes. From "My account" you can create another church and switch between them. Each one keeps its data separate.
Start today, schedule Sunday.
Create the account, invite your leaders and set up your first service in one afternoon.
