Online Chat
One-to-one and group chat inside your church system
Simple direct and group messaging so members interact during the week, with real-time unread notifications — and without moving your congregation onto a social network.
Included in the $80/mo access fee · no add-on modules

Why churches keep online chat in ChurchHarmony
01
Conversation without a social network
Members can reach each other without exchanging phone numbers or joining a platform your church does not control.
02
Directory to conversation in one click
A member looks someone up in the directory and messages them. No number to copy, no separate app to install.
03
Leaders can reach their people
A group leader messages the whole class or one member, in the system that already knows who is in the class.
How congregations use it
A new member
Someone three weeks in can message the class teacher a question without asking for a phone number.
Coordinating a meal train
The group chat handles the back and forth, and the group already exists from the directory.
Online Chat questions
Can chat be turned off?
Yes, per role, if your church would rather not enable it.
Is chat available on mobile?
Yes, in the ChurchHarmony app with unread notifications.
