A digital home for your parish
Churchly unifies your family records, sacramental registers, clergy directory, and parish communication in one secure, fully bilingual platform — Tamil and English — so your staff spend less time searching for paper and more time serving your community.
The paperwork shouldn't outweigh the pastoral care
Most parishes run on paper registers, phone calls, and spreadsheets — reliable in the moment, but fragile and slow to work with over time.
Fragmented paper registers
Baptism, marriage, and death records scattered across handwritten ledgers, with no single source of truth for a family's history.
Slow certificate retrieval
A simple baptism certificate request can mean an afternoon searching through old registers by hand.
Gaps in communication
Announcements and event details rarely reach every parishioner reliably, especially across Anbiyams and sub-stations.
Manual, error-prone reporting
Diocesan reporting means re-compiling numbers by hand from multiple parishes, register books, and spreadsheets.
Everything your parish runs on, in one platform
Churchly unifies the records and workflows a parish already depends on — so staff, clergy, dioceses, and families all work from the same accurate picture.
Family Management
One household record for every family, and a full profile for every member — sacraments, ministries, relationships, and history — kept together and always current.
Sacramental Records
Baptism, Confirmation, First Communion, Marriage, Holy Orders, and Death records — searchable, accurate, and ready for a certificate in seconds.
Clergy Directory
A living directory of priests and their assignments across the diocese, with full tenure history for every parish and sub-station.
Anbiyams & Ministries
Organize families into small Christian communities, and track every parish ministry's own leaders and members — roles, categories, and activity, all in one place.
Parish Calendar
Keep every parish's feast days and liturgical calendar in one place, shared consistently across the diocese.
Announcements
Publish announcements to your parish, in Tamil or English, and track who's actually seen and read each one.
Finance
Track income and expenses per wallet, keep sub-stations financially independent, and give families a transparent view of parish giving.
Decades of handwritten registers, made searchable
Most parishes hold generations of sacramental history in bound paper registers. Churchly's migration tools turn those handwritten baptism, marriage, and death records into accurate, searchable digital records — a guided, repeatable onboarding process, not a one-off data-entry project.
- Bulk import from scanned registers or spreadsheets, matched to existing family records automatically
- A staff review queue catches uncertain matches before anything is finalized
- Built to onboard every new parish, not just a single migration event
One structure, from diocese to member
Churchly mirrors how the Church is actually organized, so every record lives exactly where it belongs.
One platform, four very different days
“Spend less time on paperwork, more time with your parish”
Officiate a sacrament and the record is already in place — no re-writing registers by hand, no digging for a name before a home visit.
“Every record, always at hand”
Search any family, print any certificate, and log any transaction in moments, instead of paging through binders and ledgers.
“Oversight across every parish, without the phone calls”
See sacramental and membership activity across every parish in the diocese in real time, without chasing anyone for a manual report.
“Your parish, in your pocket”
Request a certificate for anyone in your family — even from another parish — and ask for a profile update, all from your own phone, with staff reviewing and approving each request.
A closer look at the interface
Simplified illustrations of real Churchly screens — a family record, a sacramental history entry, and a parish dashboard.
Built to protect sensitive parish records
Hosted on secure cloud infrastructure
Parish data is hosted on AWS infrastructure in the Mumbai region, built for reliability and regional data residency.
Encrypted in transit
All traffic runs over TLS, so records stay protected end to end between your browser and our servers.
Role-based access control
Every account only sees what its role permits — sensitive records stay visible strictly to authorized staff.
Immutable audit logging
Every change to a record is logged permanently, giving a clear, tamper-resistant history of who did what and when.
Multi-factor authentication for staff accounts
Every staff account can enroll MFA at sign-in, adding a second layer of protection beyond a password alone.
Built bilingual, Tamil and English
Every screen your staff and families use — records, certificates, communication — works fully in Tamil or English, not just a translated label here and there.
Built with DPDP Act 2023 in mind
Designed from the outset with India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 in mind, given our Tamil Nadu launch parishes.
