Volunteers tell you when they can serve.
Each volunteer sets their own vacation dates and Mass preferences in a few minutes on a phone. The schedule reads from that, not from a spreadsheet a coordinator keeps in their head.
A platform for parish life — scheduling, communications, sacramental records, stewardship, religious education, pastoral care — all in one Catholic-built place.
We get there one module at a time, parish-led. Parishes tell us which module we should build next.
Ministry Scheduling is the first. The rest is shaped by the parishes in the room.
Each volunteer sets their own vacation dates and Mass preferences in a few minutes on a phone. The schedule reads from that, not from a spreadsheet a coordinator keeps in their head.
Auto-fill respects your parish's rules — rotation, exclusivity, backup-only assignments — and produces a draft schedule in seconds. You stay in charge; nothing publishes until you say so.
When you publish, each volunteer receives a personalized email with the dates and ministries they're scheduled for — and they can still see the full schedule whenever they want. No one wades through a master roster looking for their own name.
Add your weekly Mass times, the ministries that serve at each, and how many positions need to be filled. A parish with the usual Saturday vigil and three Sunday Masses is set up in under an hour.
Volunteers receive a single email, set a password, and tell you which ministries they serve in and which Mass times they prefer. They never need a tutorial.
When the schedule is ready, publish it once. Every volunteer gets their own assignments by email; coordinators see who is filled and who is still open.
Catholic identity.
Paroecia is built by a Catholic, for parishes faithful to the Magisterium. The product respects the sacramental life and is free of clip-art piety.
Serious about parish data.
Every connection is encrypted. Volunteer records are encrypted at rest. Sign-in runs through a managed identity service with strong passwords and optional multi-factor. Backups are continuous, with point-in-time recovery.
A parish-led roadmap.
What we build next is decided by parishes telling us which module they need most. The list lives at /whats-next, and the Paroecia team reads every submission.
Built for how parishioners use technology today.
Volunteers set availability on their phone, receive assignments by email, and swap shifts in a tap. The next generation of parishioners expects this; the current generation appreciates it. Coordinators don't chase down a single voicemail.
Free to start. No credit card. Set up your first schedule in under an hour.
