Church Rota Scheduler — Volunteer Scheduling Made Powerful

Managing church volunteers shouldn't be a headache. Simple Church Rota is the feature-rich scheduling app built specifically for churches — helping you organise your teams, manage rotas and schedules, and keep everyone in the loop, all from your phone or tablet. Designed for churches of all sizes and denominations worldwide.

ROTA & SCHEDULE MANAGEMENT

Create and manage multiple rotas for any ministry — Sunday services, youth groups, worship teams, prayer meetings, and more. The colour-coded rota grid gives you a clear at-a-glance view of who is serving when. Assign volunteers to roles in seconds, confirm service dates, and handle last-minute changes on the go. Support for AM/PM services and one-off special events means no service is left unplanned.

CATEGORIES & ROLES

Organise your teams into categories (Worship, Sound, Welcome, AV, Prayer) and define specific roles within each. Volunteers know exactly what they're doing and when — no confusion, no missed assignments.

AVAILABILITY & SWAPS

Volunteers can mark themselves unavailable for upcoming dates — so you never accidentally roster someone who can't be there. Built-in swap requests let volunteers swap slots directly with each other, or request cover from anyone on the team, keeping everyone updated without back-and-forth.

GOOGLE CALENDAR SYNC & EXPORTS

View assignments in a clean monthly calendar. Export to iCal or subscribe via a live calendar feed to get your church rota straight into your preferred calendar app. Google Calendar sync is built in — connect once and your assignments appear automatically.

NOTIFICATIONS — SMS, TELEGRAM & EMAIL

Keep your volunteers informed with multi-channel notifications. Send reminders and updates via SMS, Telegram, or email — so your team never misses an assignment, whatever their preferred communication style.

CHURCH FAMILY DIRECTORY

Build a warm, connected church community with the optional family directory. Members can share a photo, bio, gifts and interests, family relationships, and more — all with per-field privacy controls so everyone stays comfortable.

MESSAGING & NOTICEBOARD

Keeping communication simple and focused, church admins can broadcast messages to the whole team in one tap. Volunteers can share sticky notes to the church group — perfect for quick updates and announcements. There's no individual messaging by design, keeping the app clutter-free and your congregation's privacy protected.

REPORTS

Track volunteer participation with built-in reports. See who has been serving, how often, and across which rotas — great for spotting gaps and making sure no one burns out.

PRINT-READY

Need a paper copy? Generate a clean, print-ready rota or service agenda with one tap — perfect for those who prefer a physical sheet on Sunday morning.

FOR CHURCH ADMINS

Full admin tools are built in: manage your team, configure rota types, manage your subscription, and customise your church settings — all from the same app.

SECURE & PRIVATE

Your church data is private to your church. Role-based access controls mean volunteers only see what they need to, and admins have full oversight. No ads, no data selling — ever.

PRICING

New churches get a full-featured 30-day free trial — no credit card required. After your trial, continue for just £35 per year. That's less than 70p a week for your entire congregation. No per-user fees, no hidden costs.
