For churches that count people, not attendance.
Somebody visited three Sundays ago.
Has anyone called them?
People do not leave a church loudly - they miss one Sunday, then two, then they are gone. The Lord Added watches every campus and cell, and tells you who is slipping away while there is still time to knock.
Free for your church. No subscription - you only ever pay for what you use.
Free to start. No card. One screen to set up - we confirm every church personally, usually within a day.
Follow-up that proves it happened
Amara visits on Sunday. Set the steps once, and every first-timer after her gets the same care - calm week or chaos.
-
The welcome goes out before she is home.
-
Three days later, it asks HER whether anyone from the church got in touch. Other systems record that a call was assigned; this one asks the person.
-
If nobody reached her, a person is told - by name, with her number - so the gap is closed by a human, not papered over by a dashboard.
Sunday, 1:04 pm

These are the product's own messages, word for word. Your church's name goes where Grace Chapel's is, and every word is yours to change.
"We have missed seeing you at Grace Chapel and wanted you to know you were on our minds. No need to reply - we just did not want to leave it unsaid."
The back door, closed
One thumb at the door buys the question every pastor actually asks: who has stopped coming?
-
Under a minute to mark a gathering, while people walk past.
-
"Not seen in three weeks" is one filter - the names, not a hunch.
-
The miss-you follow-up ships with the product. Nobody gets a message you have not read.
Free, and staying that way
This platform began with the Holy Spirit's instruction and our own local church's very real need - so the software is free, for every church, all of it. No subscription, no per-member fee, no tier hiding the useful half.
The only thing you ever pay for is use: a text message or an AI draft costs real money to send, so it costs your church what it costs us plus a small margin - prepaid, in naira, with the price shown before anything goes out. Send nothing, pay nothing.
The running of it is carried by churches and people who choose to give - nothing is ever locked behind giving, and nobody is asked twice. The full pricing, in plain figures.
Built for a church that isn't one building
Most church software assumes one congregation in one place. If yours has regions, zones, campuses or cells, it assumes wrong - and you end up with a spreadsheet per campus and no way to see the whole thing.
Here the structure goes as deep as yours does, and access follows it. A cell leader sees their cell. A zone pastor sees their zone. Whoever leads the church sees all of it rolled up - and nobody sees a campus they do not lead, enforced by the database itself, not by code remembering to check.
And it speaks your language: if you call them Life Groups, every screen says Life Groups.
One church, all of it

The details we sweat, because they are people
Nothing cheerful about a bereavement
Every event carries a tone, and everything the product writes respects it. A loss never sounds like a birthday.
No texts at 3am
Announcements hold overnight and go out when the morning opens, in each person's own time zone.
Permission is real, not a checkbox
One message asks; the answer is recorded and honoured everywhere, forever. STOP always works.
Leaving is free
Export your people and go, any time. Somebody who asks to be forgotten is erased properly - not hidden, erased.
Why "The Lord Added"
"And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved."
Acts 2:47
The growing is His. The church's part is to receive people well and lose nobody along the way - the welcome, the follow-up, the noticing when somebody drifts. This platform is built for that part, by Spirit-filled Christians who serve in church administration themselves and are out there winning souls. We built the tool we needed on a Monday morning, after a Sunday full of first-timers.
Where we actually are
We are early, and we would rather say so than have you find out after signing up. The product below is built and working; what it has not had yet is years of Sundays. The short list on the right is what the first churches are asking for next.
Working today
- Your church structure, as deep as it actually goes - regions, zones, campuses, cells
- Roles scoped to any part of that structure, so a campus lead sees their campus and nothing else
- Member records with several phone numbers each, and permission tracked per number and per channel
- Attendance in under a minute per gathering, and the list of who has stopped coming
- Follow-up that advances on its own by SMS or email, with a person always able to take over
- A question sent to the member that asks whether the follow-up actually reached them
- First timers welcomed automatically, with consent and follow-up each their own choice
- Giving recorded with the receipt image attached, read for you by AI, and thanked per entry - by a person
- Bank statement reconciliation, member giving submissions, and annual statements released one by one
- A care list of who may be drifting - not seen lately, in no group, carrying nothing - with the reasons shown
- Sermons written up, translated, and shared as a page you can send to whoever missed it
- AI drafting that matches the moment - never a cheerful message about a bereavement
- Prepaid credit, spending limits and receipts, with what every message costs shown before it goes
- Reports with date ranges, spreadsheet downloads and standing email schedules
- The wording changed to yours: if you run Life Groups, the product says Life Groups
- An append-only record of every access change, which the application itself cannot rewrite
Being built now
- WhatsApp alongside SMS and email, the moment the business platform makes it dependable
- Working with no signal, so a cell leader can mark attendance where the network does not reach
- A page of their own for members, rather than everything going through the church office
- Video alongside audio, for churches that record the whole service
Questions churches ask
Why is it called The Lord Added?
From Acts 2:47 - "And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved." Growth is His; the church's part is to receive people well and lose nobody along the way. This platform is built for that part: the welcome, the follow-up, the noticing when somebody drifts. It is built by Spirit-filled Christians who serve in church administration themselves and are actively winning souls.
Is it really free?
There is no subscription and no per-seat fee. You pay only for things that cost real money to send - SMS, email, and AI - as prepaid credits in your own currency, at published per-message prices. If you send nothing, you pay nothing. The running of the platform is carried by churches and people who choose to give; nothing is ever locked behind giving.
What is actually ready right now?
Member records, attendance, follow-up campaigns that message by SMS or email and ask the member whether anyone reached them, the giving ledger with receipt images, bank reconciliation and annual statements, a pastoral care list of who may be drifting, reports with spreadsheet export, sermon write-ups, and an audit trail of every change. What is still ahead of us is years of Sundays - which is exactly what early churches provide, and why they shape what gets built next.
Can we keep our own data?
Yes. Your data is yours: exportable at any time, and self-hostable if you would rather run it on your own server. Churches that self-host pay a one-time setup fee and no ongoing charge.
Why should we trust a new product with our members?
Judge it on how it is built rather than on promises. Every church is isolated at the database level, not by application code that could forget. Every permission change, role grant and structural move is recorded in an append-only log the application itself cannot edit. Giving is append-only too - corrections are visible, never silent. Passwords are never stored, only hashed, and never appear in any log.
Do we need one account per campus?
No. One church, however many levels deep. A zone pastor sees their zone, a campus lead sees their campus, and whoever leads the whole church sees everything rolled up - from the same account, with access scoped to the part of the structure each person actually leads.
What does it cost to switch away?
Nothing, and that is deliberate. Export your data and leave. Credits already bought are not refundable, so buy what you need rather than a large balance up front.
The next person to quietly disappear hasn't disappeared yet.
Setting up takes one screen, and we confirm every church personally - usually within a day. Bring your spreadsheet, mark one Sunday, and by the week after you will know exactly who needs a call. Early churches decide what gets built next, and keep the free software permanently.
Free to start. No card, and nothing to cancel.
