Log on and Search

Individual Profile
Individual Profiles in Servant Keeper keep everything you need to know concerning your members. There are many standard and extra fields, all of which can be renamed to reflect the wording and types of data necessary for your unique ministry. Individual Attributes is a great place to keep unlimited personal attributes and characteristics to help you better understand, plan for and involve people within your congregation. The individual profile also provides staff members with a central location to see all the information about the individual.
Building a Group

Groups allow you to manage the families or individuals in your database based on anything that you are tracking in Servant Keeper like common characteristics, areas of ministry or attendance.

Entering Contributions

The great thing is, you can easily link with Quickbooks, Quicken, or any major accounting program for your church accounting.

Servant Keeper church software allows you to quickly print statements for everyone that gave with just a couple clicks of the mouse. You also have the power to generate statements based on specific information like amount, contributors, accounts, groups and more.

After adding the information for the first person in a family Servant Keeper reduces redundant entry, by automatically filling in information like last name, address, and phone number in each new profile that is added to the family, saving you entry time.
