What parish leaders are saying
"Before Rehost, our parish bulletin was the only way we reached parishioners between Sundays. Now over 400 families open the app daily for readings and announcements. Our offertory has increased 22% since launch."
Fr. Michael Reyes
Pastor, St. Augustine Catholic Church
San Antonio, TX
"We were losing young families to churches with better technology. The app brought them back. Youth group sign-ups tripled in the first month because parents could register in two taps."
Maria Gutierrez
Director of Religious Education
Our Lady of Grace Parish, Phoenix, AZ

Why a Catholic-specific app matters
Generic church software was built for Protestant worship models. Catholic parish life is different.
Sacraments, Not "Life Events"
Protestant apps track "life events." Catholic parishes track Baptism, Confirmation, First Communion, Marriage, Holy Orders, Anointing of the Sick, and Reconciliation. The difference matters for diocese reporting.
Lectionary, Not "Devotionals"
Catholics follow the universal Lectionary. The readings for Tuesday in the Third Week of Lent are the same in San Antonio as they are in Rome. Your app should reflect that.
Offertory, Not "Tithing"
Catholics give through the offertory collection. The language, the rhythm, and the relationship to giving is different from the Protestant tithe model. Your app should speak your parish's language.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions from pastors, parish administrators, and diocese leadership.
Does our parish need technical staff to manage this?
No. We build, design, and maintain everything. Your parish office focuses on ministry while we handle the technology. Updates, App Store compliance, and hosting are all included.
How is this different from eCatholic?
eCatholic provides website hosting and templated tools. We build a 100% custom native app under your parish's brand. No shared templates, no platform lock-in. Your parish name is on the App Store, and you own your data, donor records, and accounts so you're never trapped.
How is this different from ParishSOFT or ParishStaq?
ParishSOFT is a desktop-era administration system for diocese accounting and census records. ParishStaq by Pushpay is an enterprise suite that costs $500+/mo. We focus on what actually keeps parishioners engaged: a beautiful, fast app they open every day.
Can we track sacramental records?
Yes. Baptism, Confirmation, First Communion, Marriage, and other sacramental milestones can be recorded, tracked, and reported from within the app's admin panel.
Does it support English and Spanish?
Yes. Full bilingual support for content, push notifications, and parish announcements. Your team can publish in both languages simultaneously.
How does offertory giving work?
Secure in-app giving with recurring offertory management and one-time donations. Parishioners give in 2 taps without being redirected to a third-party site. Annual giving statements are generated automatically.
Can we send push notifications?
Unlimited. Mass time changes, feast day reminders, prayer intentions, emergency weather closures, ministry sign-up reminders. Instantly to every parishioner's phone.
Is our parish data secure?
Enterprise-grade encryption with GDPR-compliant data handling. Your parish controls all data access. Nothing is sold or shared with third parties.
How fast can we launch?
Most parish apps launch within 2 to 3 weeks. We handle design, development, App Store submission, and compliance.
Is there a long-term contract?
No. Simple one-page agreement. Month-to-month. Cancel anytime with no penalties.
