An illustrative workspace with fictional records. Choose a tool to explore the connection.
People at
the center.
A person’s story should stay connected, wherever church life takes them.
When people, registrations and communication share a foundation, the next step becomes easier to see. Less copying between systems. More context for the person in front of you.

Simple should be standard.
Plain language, familiar layouts and clear next steps. Everyday ministry work should feel approachable from the first click.
Connected by design.
One shared foundation for people and permissions, with native tools and thoughtful integrations built around it.
Open by intention.
We’re working toward an open-source platform that churches can understand and adapt, with room for an ecosystem of plugins.

questions.
Where we are, where we’re going, and what to expect.
Can our church use Gather today?
Gather is in active development. The current private preview is for exploring with fictional data, rather than running a church. We’re starting with the shared foundation and building outward.
What can I explore in the preview?
People and households, events and registrations, audience previews, staff access, reviewed CSV imports and account security. Confirmation emails and staff invitations are simulated. The public sample above is an illustration; the private preview is the working application.
Will Gather be open source?
That is the goal. We want churches to be able to inspect, adapt and own their software. The repository is private during early development, and the project license has not yet been finalized.
Does one platform mean zero running costs?
No. Hosting, email and text delivery, payments and video infrastructure can still carry costs. Our aim is to reduce the number of separate tools a church needs, with a useful native foundation and optional integrations.
How are you thinking about sensitive information?
Access to the preview is protected, and the foundation includes church-scoped permissions and restricted care information. Real church data stays out of this build. Production security reviews, recovery procedures and other release controls still need to be completed.
