Quick Answer

CommunitiesOS is the private community platform built for churches and faith communities. It gives congregations a branded, invite-only space where members stay connected between Sundays - with no ads next to pastoral content, no competing causes shown to congregation members, and full data ownership. Unlike Facebook Groups, Slack, or course-creator platforms, CommunitiesOS is built specifically for faith-based organizations running communities for their congregation. Plans start at $97 per month with unlimited members and zero transaction fees.

CommunitiesOS was built for the church that needs a private community its congregation actually uses - without handing it to Facebook or a platform that was never built for faith communities.

Why churches are making the switch

Facebook Groups were not built for your church.

Your congregation is scattered across Facebook and email while your posts reach fewer than 5% of them. The rest scroll past ads for alcohol, gambling, and content your church never approved appearing next to your message.

Ads next to your pastor's message

Every post your pastor makes sits next to ads Facebook chose - alcohol brands, gambling apps, and competing religious content your congregation did not ask to see. CommunitiesOS contains zero ads, so your pastoral message is always the only message.

Most members never see your posts

Facebook's algorithm suppresses organic reach to fewer than 5% of your group members, so most of your congregation never sees your posts. Your midweek devotional, volunteer sign-up, and urgent prayer requests deserve a direct line to everyone in your congregation.

No privacy for pastoral care

Mental health conversations, family struggles, and grief support require a genuinely private space - not a public platform built for engagement and advertising. Facebook Groups were designed for reach, not confidentiality, and your congregation's vulnerable moments deserve better.

Everything your congregation needs

One private home for your entire church.

CommunitiesOS gives your congregation a private, branded space that reflects your church's values, not an advertiser's. Your name, your logo, your domain - your members always see your church, not a platform.

Your church's brand - not ours

Your custom domain, church logo, and brand colors are what members see from their very first click. CommunitiesOS stays in the background - your church brand is always front and center.

Private and values-aligned

Invite-only access means only your congregation can see your content, with no ads and no public feed visible to outsiders. Your community reflects your church's values, not those of an advertising platform.

Organize your entire congregation

Create separate groups for your small group platform - ministry teams, youth ministry, women's ministry, and elders each with their own private space. Add dedicated channels for announcements, prayer requests, and sermon discussion.

Announcements that reach everyone

A dedicated announcement channel sends a push notification to every congregation member the moment you post, with no algorithm in between. Every service update, volunteer alert, and urgent notice reaches your entire congregation.

Live meetings for every ministry

CommunitiesOS Go Live lets you host congregation broadcasts, private board meetings, and small group video sessions with no Zoom required. Every ministry group gets its own meeting room at no extra cost.

Discipleship courses and content

CommunitiesOS is a discipleship platform that delivers structured courses and Bible study series directly inside your congregation community. Content drip-unlocks on a schedule so members progress at the right pace.

What church leaders are saying

Churches across America are making the switch.

God calls us to be one body, united in purpose and love. This community is not just a new space - it is a way to walk closer together, share openly, and strengthen the bonds that make us a family in Christ.

The private community platform for churches

What $97 per month means for a church budget.

Most churches are already paying for tools that scatter their congregation - Zoom for meetings, a Facebook Group they do not own, and an email platform that reaches fewer than half their members. CommunitiesOS replaces all of it with one private space your church owns. CommunitiesOS serves churches across all 50 states at a flat $97 per month. No per-member fees. No transaction fees. No algorithm. Pricing verified April 2026.

Common questions

Common Questions About
CommunitiesOS for Churches.

CommunitiesOS is the best community platform for churches because it is built specifically for faith communities rather than course creators or corporate teams. It gives congregations a private, branded space with no ads, no competing content shown to members, full data ownership, and zero transaction fees. Unlike Facebook Groups, which show congregation members ads and competing causes, CommunitiesOS keeps all content within the faith community's own branded space. Plans start at $97 per month with unlimited members.
The most effective way to keep a congregation connected between Sundays is a private online community where members can access devotionals, connect with their small group, receive church announcements, and engage in faith discussions throughout the week. CommunitiesOS gives churches a private branded community with dedicated channels for announcements, small groups, ministry teams, and pastoral care - all accessible on web and mobile with push notifications that reach every member directly.
Churches can use Facebook Groups, but the platform creates real problems for faith communities. Facebook shows congregation members ads and content that may conflict with church values directly next to pastoral posts. Post reach is suppressed to fewer than 5% of group members by the algorithm. All member data belongs to Facebook, not the church. And pastoral care conversations in Facebook Groups have no true privacy. CommunitiesOS gives churches a private community with no ads, guaranteed reach to every member, and full data ownership.
The best way to connect church members online is a private community platform with separate channels for different parts of the congregation - small groups, ministry teams, youth, seniors, and leadership. Each group needs its own private space where pastoral conversations happen without the distraction of ads or competing content. CommunitiesOS provides this in a single branded platform where the church owns the space, every announcement reaches every member with a push notification, and live meetings for small groups and services are built in at no extra cost.
Slack works for internal church staff communication but is not built for congregation community. Slack's free plan deletes message history after 90 days, making it unreliable for ongoing pastoral conversations. It has no announcement channel with guaranteed delivery to all members, no private channels purpose-built for small groups and ministry teams, and no live meeting tools for services or gatherings. Congregation members find Slack feels like a workplace tool, not a faith community - which significantly reduces engagement.
Yes. CommunitiesOS is built for small group organization. Each small group gets its own private channel within your church community - separate from the general congregation feed, visible only to small group members, with its own discussions and live meeting capability. Your women's group, men's group, youth group, seniors ministry, and leadership team each have their own private space inside your church's branded community. Small group leaders can moderate their own channels without needing admin access to the whole community.
CommunitiesOS starts at $97 per month for churches with unlimited congregation members and zero transaction fees. There are no per-member charges, no setup fees for self-service configuration, and no long-term contracts. For churches that want full setup handled by CommunitiesOS's US-based team, done-for-you onboarding services are available as a one-time fee. Annual billing is available at a reduced rate. Most churches find that CommunitiesOS replaces multiple tools they are already paying for separately - Zoom for meetings, email platforms for announcements, and Facebook for community - at a lower total cost.
Yes. CommunitiesOS is private by default - invite-only access, no public feed, and no ads. Congregation members join only when invited by the church. Non-members cannot browse, search, or see any community content. Private channels add an additional layer of privacy for pastoral care conversations, leadership discussions, and sensitive ministry communications. CommunitiesOS contains no advertising and does not share member data with advertisers or third parties. All congregation data belongs to the church, not the platform.
Yes. CommunitiesOS includes native live meeting and broadcast capability built into every plan. Churches can host live worship services and sermon broadcasts, small group video meetings, leadership and elder sessions, youth group gatherings, and prayer meetings - all inside CommunitiesOS without needing Zoom or Google Meet. There is no participant cap and no time limit. Live meeting capability is included in every plan at no extra cost, replacing the Zoom Pro licenses most churches currently pay for separately.
Moving a church community from Facebook Groups to CommunitiesOS takes three steps. First, collect your congregation members' email addresses from your Facebook Group before making the move. Second, configure your CommunitiesOS space with your church's branding, private channels for small groups and ministry teams, and member roles. Third, announce the move in your Facebook Group with a single join link for your new private church community. CommunitiesOS provides exact messaging templates for each step and US-based migration support. Most churches complete their migration and go live within their first week.
Churches can use Skool but will find it was not built for faith communities. Skool is designed for course creators monetizing an audience - its gamification leaderboards, creator discovery feed, and course-monetization architecture conflict with how a congregation operates. Churches need private ministry channels, pastoral care spaces, and a community identity that reflects their values - not a platform built for coaches selling online courses. CommunitiesOS is built specifically for faith communities where Skool is not.
Building a private online community for a church takes three steps with CommunitiesOS. First, book a 15-minute call so CommunitiesOS's US-based team can learn about your church - your congregation size, small group structure, and what you want the community to feel like between Sundays. Second, your branded space is configured with private channels for each ministry, your custom domain, and your church's logo and colors. Third, share a single invite link with your congregation and go live. Most churches complete setup and launch their community within their first week.
Yes. CommunitiesOS works for churches of any size - from a congregation of 50 to a church of 50,000. Every plan includes unlimited members with no per-member fees, so the monthly cost stays the same whether your congregation grows from 100 to 1,000 members. Small churches benefit from the same private branded community, live meetings, small group channels, and announcement tools as large churches - at the same $97 per month starting price with no upgrade required to access core features.
