Church software that doesn’t end with a report.
Woven reads the church systems you already run, finds the few people who need someone this week, and asks the one member of your church best placed to reach each of them.
You know your church. No one can see every thread in it.
You know these families. Their history, their rhythms, the ones you’ve walked through hard seasons with. But past a few hundred people, no pastor, no staff, and no elder board can hold every thread at once: who walked in for the first time, who’s been here for years and still knows no one, who’s carrying too much, who’s already halfway out the door. Those threads all exist. They’re sitting in the systems you already pay for, unread.

Three years on the hospitality team, never once missed a rotation. Asked four times since the summer, and turned down every one. Nobody asked what changed.

Life momentThe Brennans
Their first baby came in February. They have missed six Sundays since, which is exactly what a first baby does. Nobody from the church has met her.
First baby. Six Sundays missed.
The one no one has asked
Ready to leadTanya
Four years in the same Wednesday group, first to arrive and last to leave, quietly steadying everyone around her. She has never once been asked to lead anything.
Four years. Never asked.
Not one of them was hiding. All seven were already in the data you have.
“Ten years ago, this was me. I attended faithfully for years. No small groups, no fellowship, just in and out on Sunday mornings. Unconnected. Then I got invited to a men’s BBQ, not by a pastor or staff, but by a guy in the congregation just like me. That one random invitation started me on a journey of discipleship and belonging that changed my life forever.”

The right person found him by accident. Woven exists to make it happen on purpose, for everyone in the room.
Everything Woven knows arrives as one human ask.
Woven reads the systems you already run, works out who should act, and asks that one person to take one step, then follows what happened. Every other tool ends by handing your staff a list.

What Mark gets
To a connector
Hi Mark,
Dave W. has been at the 9:00 service most weeks for about two years. He isn’t in a group and isn’t serving anywhere yet. You’ve both got second-graders in the same Sunday class.
Would you invite him to men’s breakfast on Saturday?
Yes, I’ll reach out
Not this time
Woven never messages Dave. It only ever asks Mark.
What giving is saying
Six more signals, and the earliest warning you already have.
A canceled recurring gift is rarely about money. It is a job lost, a marriage under strain, a season changing. No giving platform surfaces it as pastoral information, and most churches find out a quarter too late.
Gone quiet
Was regular, now silent. The hardest one to notice by hand, and the most worth noticing.
Fading
Still giving, materially less than they were. A trend rather than a single missed week.
Canceled
They canceled a recurring gift outright. A decision, not a drift.
Reduced
They lowered a recurring gift rather than stopping it. Usually pressure, not distance.
New giver
A first ever gift. Someone just decided this is their church now.
Increased
They raised a recurring gift. A quiet vote of confidence in what you are doing.
The silent hardship
The Hendersons
Their recurring gift stopped in April. It was never about the church. It was a layoff. The one person who should have called never learned why.
Recurring gift canceled in April.
Staff only. Never sent to a connector.
Nothing new to collect. Nothing new to run.
Read-only access to the church management system you already use: check-ins, groups, serving, registrations, giving. No new forms, no surveys, no data entry, and nothing for your congregation to download.
Nothing is ever asked of the person you’re reaching. No app, no form, no idea they were ever on a list. The whole thing arrives as a friend.

The Signal Book
All thirteen signals, what each one means in plain words, the rule behind it, and who does the reaching. Written for pastors, not for procurement.
Belonging isn’t a program. It’s one person noticing another, now across your whole congregation.
Get woven in.
We’re partnering with a few churches at a time, the ones that care deeply about every person in the room, not just the ones up front. If that’s your church, we’d love to show you Woven.
Thank you. We’ve received your message.
We’ll be in touch within a day.
