The best way to track and organize pastoral care

Notebird provides one central place for all your touch points, visitation and conversation notes—allowing you to see a history of care for each congregant.

😭 The Problem

Are your people falling through the cracks?

Tracking pastoral care with spreadsheets, group texts, email threads, complicated databases and random sticky notes simply doesn’t work.

Video: The Problem With Spreadsheets

Pastor Megan Johnson shares about her frustration with the infamous pastoral care spreadsheet. People continued to fall through the cracks as she was using tools that didn't work well when it came to organizing interactions. Numbers are for spreadsheets, not people. Notebird helps organizations track and organize the details.

Spreadsheets are for numbers, not people.

Countless columns and rows make it hard to track care history and see the latest updates. All that complexity causes your team to stop making updates.

Care needs get lost in staff meetings.

Staff meetings can quickly turn into a pastoral care ‘share all’ which is necessary when there isn’t a centralized system—but it is extremely time consuming. If you miss the meeting, you miss the valuable care information.

Video: The Problem With Using Your Memory - Notebird Testimonial with Justin Johnson

Memory alone is unreliable.

As your congregation grows and your responsibilities multiply it becomes more challenging to remember the details in the lives of your people. It is devastating when a leader leaves and all the pastoral care information is stored in their brains—that valuable care history is gone.

😄 Our Happy Customers

Check out what people are saying about Notebird.

“I serve First Presbyterian Church of San Antonio, TX as their Associate Pastor for Congregational Care. I am in my 17th year and I confess that until I discovered Notebird, my organization skills were seriously lacking. Now we have a pastoral care team, we are simply organized, and we love Notebird!”

Rev. Scott Simpson
First Presbyterian Church of San Antonio

“We are a mid-sized church that recently moved to using Notebird and we love it. We have a visitation team of about six people who are making regular entries, tracking tasks, activities and pastoral care needs, and our responsiveness to pastoral needs has really improved since making the switch!”

De Ching
Olympia, Washington

“I’d get excited about keeping up with excel and logging everything and then after a week or two that would stop because it wasn’t easy. I use Notebird daily and love it!”

Todd Lovelace
Family Pastor // Skyline Church

“We used a dry-erase board to list out who was in the hospital. We then tried a staff group text to communicate about care (40-50 texts a day). After that didn’t work, we started a shared note on iPhone to manage care lists. When he announced Notebird to staff, people were saying "Sign-me up! Sign-me up!”
