Built for the Body.

Codencio quietly handles the planning, the projection, the scheduling, the email, the kids check-in — the work behind the work — so your team can spend Sunday morning with people, not with software.

What it does

The software gets out of the way.

Every job below used to live in its own tool, with its own login and its own bill. Codencio quietly does them all in the background so your people can do the actual work of the Church. Tap any to read the details.

Plan

The whole week, on one page.

Build the order of service in the same editor your volunteers see. Reorder by drag, assign by role, attach decks and PDFs to plan items. Confirmations come back in real time.

  • Sermon Planner — write the message in rich-text sections, turn any section into a slide whose speaker notes stay linked, and preach from the speaker view.
  • Reusable templates with {date:short} interpolation so "Sunday Morning" auto-becomes "May 17 — Sunday Morning."
  • Auto-rostered team chat for the service plus DMs for everyone else, with unread badges.
  • iCal calendar feed volunteers subscribe to from Google / Apple / Outlook.
  • Per-service runtime preview so you know if the sermon needs to be 30 or 28 minutes before the service starts.

See the planning details

Service detail page for 'Sunday Morning Worship' showing date, time, location, the series 'One Body, Many Members', a 'Run Service' button, and an order-of-service list starting with Pre-service countdown, Welcome & announcements, and Cornerstone with 7 slides attached.

Sunday morning at Grace Community. Drag to reorder · attach decks · confirm by phone.

Run

Every screen, perfectly in sync.

One operator console controls the projector, the confidence monitor, the band's sheet music, and the live- stream embed. Hit a key, and every screen catches up in about a tenth of a second.

  • In-browser slide editor shaped like PowerPoint — drag, resize, layer image + text overlays; import existing .pptx decks.
  • Confidence + operator + speaker modes for stage / booth / podium — pick the surface from one launcher.
  • Synchronized PDF sheet music for the band with Bluetooth footswitch + per-device "look ahead on my own" toggle.
  • OBS / vMix embed with audio so streaming gets exactly what the projector shows — no screenshare jank.
  • One-tap lower-thirds + live captions + 300+ CC0 video backdrops in the library.

See projection details

Operator surface showing the 'Cornerstone — lyrics' deck, a thumbnail grid of 8 slides in the centre (5 song lyrics, 1 scripture, 1 sermon title, 1 audience quiz), a service-plan rail on the left, and a live preview panel on the right with Slide / Lower-third / Blackout / Media indicators.

Reach

Send the email. Take the cards. Hear the prayers.

Every channel a small church actually uses for member care and visitor follow-up — email, public forms, prayer requests, connection cards — lands in one inbox a volunteer can actually keep up with.

  • HTML email broadcasts with audience targeting, Saturday-at-4pm scheduling, RFC 8058 one-click unsubscribe, hard-bounce auto-suppression.
  • Connection cards from public QR codes — admin inbox, promote-to-person, board card auto-created for follow-up.
  • Anonymous prayer wall with moderation + projection mode + real-time hand-raise from /follow.
  • Persistent team channels (Slack-lite, role-gated) for #worship-team / #greeters / #leadership.
  • Public forms with multi-page, conditional fields, daily quota, e-signature.

Care

Care for the Body all week long.

Discipleship doesn't happen on Sunday morning. It happens in small groups, follow-ups, pastoral notes, and the quiet rhythms between services. Codencio holds the connective tissue.

  • People + households with parent-child relationships, role-based access, Promote-to-Person from a connection card.
  • Photo directory with three-tier opt-in (none / staff / members) so scrapers don't get a roster.
  • Discipleship pathways — define membership / baptism / leadership tracks; see each person's progress.
  • Pastoral-care notes with per-note ACL + audit-on-read for confidential entries.
  • Kids check-in — kiosk, parent search, classroom rosters, browser-print tags with allergy callouts, security-code pickup pair.
  • Memory verse of the week — pick a passage; members get a daily push reminder + a word-by-word reveal interface to help memorize.

See care features

Public face

Your church website, built in.

Multi-page site — Home, About, Watch, Give, Connect, Events, Contact — built into the same admin you use for services. Service times pull from your planner. One bill, one login.

  • Auto-SEO + JSON-LD church schema so Google understands what your site is.
  • Custom domain with auto-SSL — Let's Encrypt cert issues on first request, renews automatically.
  • Image library with approval queue — staff submit; admin approves before publish.
  • Public events with RSVP — audience rules + signup forms + member-feed visibility.
  • Public About page with staff "Contact Pastor Mike" relay (no scraped email exposure).

See website features

A real website built with Codencio. Custom domain, your branding, fully editable by your staff — no separate hosting bill, no plugin updates.

Bonus · audience interactivity

Every voice in the room — including the couch.

Drop an audience prompt into a deck and the projector grows a QR code. Phones scan — from the pews, the overflow room, the livestream couch at home — and join the moment. Votes show live. The right answer flashes when the timer hits zero.

  • Quiz · multi-choice with auto-reveal — perfect for scripture memory.
  • Poll · multi-choice, no right answer — take the room's temperature.
  • Numeric · number input, shows avg / min / max — pledge counts, ratings, estimates.
  • Word cloud · free text rendered live (members-only — auth gate at the API layer).
  • Q&A wall · free text with a moderation queue so nothing reaches the projector without approval.

How audience interactivity works

The /present projector view with an audience quiz live: large QR + four-character join code 'CFYF' on the left; on the right, the prompt 'So in Christ we, though many, form one ______ — and each member belongs to all the others' with four choices, the correct answer 'A · body' highlighted emerald with 70% of votes. The same audience quiz on a phone: the question prompt, the four answer cards, and a 135-second countdown.

Projector + phone, mid-vote. 140 votes in; reveal flashes the correct answer at zero.

Why churches switch

Less stack to manage. More time with your people.

Most small churches we talk to are juggling six or seven separate tools across planning, projection, email, forms, check-in, directory, and a website — each with its own login, its own bill, its own quirks. Somebody on staff has to keep it all stitched together. That somebody could be doing ministry instead.

What you get back

~$1,300/year, plus the hours typical 200-attendee church on the cheapest tier of every separate tool — the time savings aren't on the invoice, but staff feel them first
One login Staff and volunteers learn one app, not seven. Onboarding a new volunteer takes minutes instead of a week.
One bill One renewal, one card on file, one budget line — no more reconciling who-pays-for-what across six SaaS receipts.
One vocabulary "The setlist" lives in the same place as "the slides" lives in the same place as "the volunteers." Less translating between tools.
One source of truth A member's profile, their giving, their kids, their roles, their notes — all reachable from one row, not five tabs.
Quiet Sundays When projection, planning, and check-in all live in one stack, Sunday morning has fewer moving parts to break.
Time you can spend on the room The hours nobody bills for — license renewals, support tickets, "wait, which tool is that in again?" — go back to the work that actually matters.

Codencio doesn't try to do everything (giving stays with your processor; payroll stays with whoever runs your payroll). The claim: cover the day-to-day work of a sub-300 congregation in one stack, so your team's attention is on the people, not the platform. See the full feature list.
