ChurchSoftware Two-Way Texting is a paid messaging add-on for ChurchSoftware’s core church-management platform. It is designed for churches, parachurch organizations, and faith-based nonprofits that need to send SMS messages to individuals or groups and receive replies in the same system. The feature set suits church plants, small groups, volunteers, teams, and multi-site churches looking for basic two-way communication rather than a broad nonprofit communications suite.

The Two-way Texting plan costs $29 per month with monthly billing. It includes individual and group texting, direct replies, contact organization through groups and lists, scheduled automated reminders, and staff follow-up for questions or prayer requests. The vendor’s free offer applies to the core ChurchSoftware platform, while texting is a separate paid add-on. That makes the product straightforward to evaluate for organizations that already want the ChurchSoftware platform and need messaging alongside it.

Its main strength is focus: churches can combine list management, reminders, incoming replies, and follow-up in one web-based texting workflow. The trade-off is a narrow ecosystem and scope. No integrations are included, and the product does not provide fundraising features. Email is the listed support channel, and the product is available on the web. Churches seeking basic two-way texting for ministry communication should find the plan easy to understand; organizations needing fundraising tools, connected integrations, or a wider nonprofit messaging stack should consider a broader alternative.
