Wethr gives mid-size churches one place to organize people, plan every Sunday, and schedule volunteers. No enterprise bloat. No spreadsheet chaos.
Too large for group texts and spreadsheets. Too lean for enterprise platforms built for megachurches. Until now, there hasn't been a good option in the middle.
Volunteer schedules live in Google Sheets maintained by one person. When that person leaves, everything breaks. No history, no conflict detection, no awareness of burnout.
Scheduling happens through a flood of texts and emails. Confirmations get lost. Leaders spend hours chasing RSVPs instead of doing the work they signed up for.
Platforms like Planning Center were built for churches 10x your size. The learning curve is steep, the price is high, and most features go unused.
Wethr is designed for the congregation in the middle. Big enough to need structure, grounded enough to need simplicity.
Large enough that informal coordination breaks down. Small enough that enterprise software is overkill. That's where Wethr fits.
A single administrator or executive pastor often runs the entire coordination operation. Wethr is built to make that load lighter, not heavier.
Worship, Kids, Youth, Hospitality, AV. Each with their own leaders, roles, and volunteers. Wethr manages them all from one place.
Phase 1 covers the full loop: a team structure you can configure, a service you can plan, and the right people in the right roles.
The foundation of everything else. Every person in Wethr lives in the directory, with their household, contact info, member status, and team memberships in sync.
Organize your volunteers into named teams with clear leadership and defined roles. Every team in Wethr is a structured unit, not just a group chat.
The Order of Service is where it all comes together. Plan each service with a flexible block builder where every person, role, and note stays connected.
Phase 1 gives leaders clear visibility into who's available, who's eligible, and who's at risk of burning out, all before a single assignment is made.
Staff see everything. Ministry leaders manage their own teams. Volunteers see only what's relevant to them. No extra configuration needed.
Wethr isn't a project management tool with a church skin. It's built around how ministry actually works, week to week.
Every Sunday has a shape. Wethr is built around that shape. The Order of Service is the center, and everything else connects to it.
The system should reduce burden on volunteers, not create new ones. Complexity lives with administrators, not with the people who show up to serve.
Scheduling that protects people, not just fills slots. Frequency caps and conflict detection are built in from the start, not tacked on later.
A small staff team should be able to run the whole platform. Every workflow is designed for one person, not a dedicated IT department.
The full feature set runs in any modern browser on any device. No app store required. Installable as a PWA for a native-feeling experience.
Not a firehose. Timely, relevant messaging so volunteers hear what matters to them and nothing they don't.
Phase 1 is the foundation. Each phase builds on the last, adding the capabilities churches ask for most.
Once Phase 1 is in churches' hands, Wethr gets smarter. The scheduling engine handles the routine work, and volunteers get notified, reminded, and confirmed without a single text from a leader.
We're onboarding pilot churches now with hands-on setup. The Wethr team handles your data migration. No spreadsheet exports or IT help required.
