New Maranatha App & Church Management System
Coming Soon: New Maranatha Church App & Management System
New Maranatha Church App coming Soon— We are excited to announce the launch of our new church management system. We are transitioning to One Church Software—a system that is robust and easy to use. In one place, you will be able to manage your personal information, connect with your groups, register for events, and complete online giving. Our new system will also include a new Maranatha Church App, which will make it easy to participate in the life of the Church. We believe this new system will make it easier for all of us to walk together as a family, loving God and loving people. We can't wait to start this new journey with you.
