IRVING, Texas, Aug. 5, 2010 — Fellowship Technologies and The Table Project are pleased to announce the formation of an exciting new partnership that will combine the best in church management software with an innovative new social community platform. This partnership will give churches more opportunities than ever before to effectively and efficiently manage their church while fostering community within their congregation and beyond.
Fellowship Technologies' flagship product, Fellowship One, is a web-based church management software solution for dynamic churches of any size or denomination and used by over 1,500 churches worldwide. Fellowship One provides tools for managing members, visitors, volunteers, events, donations, and more. A central feature of Fellowship One is the Groups capabilities that allow churches to easily manage hundreds, or even thousands, of small groups. Through Fellowship One Groups, the church can empower lay leaders to manage and report on the groups under their care while maintaining the ability to monitor the health and effectiveness of the small group ministry.
Some churches want to provide additional community tools beyond what is provided by Fellowship One. They desire aspects of traditional social applications like Facebook, but within a safe environment that is managed by the church, and preferably linked to their existing membership data.
The Table Project seeks to fill the gap between church management software and secular social media applications. The Table Project is a non-profit organization whose mission is to help churches "Live Church Together" through community-building software. They go beyond traditional social media through their platform called "The Table," a custom tailored solution for the church that aims to move people beyond the pews and into authentic life-changing relationships.
"Since the day I first saw a demonstration of The Table I began to think about how powerful it would be to integrate it with Fellowship One," said Jeff Hook, CEO/President of Fellowship Technologies. "For churches that want to extend past our Fellowship One Groups offering, The Table allows the church to engage their social network at a greater level."
"The Table Project wanted to partner with the premier provider of church management software for the local church. Our conclusion after studying the market was that hands down Fellowship One was that product," said Ken Finsaas, Executive Director, The Table Project. "This partnership between our organizations allows us to bring the local church the best possible solution, both in terms of church management and social media, aimed at building community within and outside its walls."
The Table Project is currently conducting a private beta of their community tools with a number of influential churches. After incorporating feedback from the beta program, The Table Project will be made available to all churches. Basic integration with Fellowship One's membership data is already complete with deeper levels of integration planned for future releases.
"I'm excited to hear about the coming together of two great web-based technologies for churches, Fellowship One and The Table Project," said Ben Anderson, Ministry Development Manager at Eagle Brook Church. "This strategic partnership will enable Eagle Brook attenders to engage and grow in community and easily allow us to manage our church administrative systems via the web."
