Any church, of any tradition, can list itself, welcome visitors and hand members on when they move — at no cost. Churches and conferences that want the dashboards, records and admin tools pay a banded annual, never per seat. And pilot churches still get their first 90-day season free.
Available now means a church can use it today. Opening with the pilot means it is built into the pilot now forming — join and you get it first.
The part of NORM Connect that brings people in costs a church nothing, ever. Every listed church makes it more useful for every other one — so it should be free.
Free listings send by email. Text messaging is a paid add-on, because each text costs us to send.
Your first season costs nothing, and your annual is locked at half price for as long as you run it.
The full season kit, your NORMConnect set up, the leader training day, the afternoon training, an Opening Sabbath delivered in person, and the Celebration Sabbath that closes the season. No cost.
When the season ends and you decide to keep the system, your annual is 50% off — permanently. It survives every future price change.
Legacy Ministry Partners tell us what to build next, and get it first. Your testimony is worth more to us than your first invoice.
What we ask in return: run one honest season, let us learn from it, and tell other pastors the truth about how it went.
A smaller congregation than the bands below assume? Say so. We would rather price to what your church can actually carry than watch a 60-member church get priced out of care.
Two lines, and the second one only starts when the first season ends. This is what a Legacy Ministry Partner is being given — and what half price is half of.
Running a pilot season? Don’t use these buttons. Your first season costs nothing and your annual is set up with your Legacy Ministry Partner discount already applied — talk to us instead. The buy links below are for a church that has finished a season and decided to keep going.
Fold one — Gather. Everything to run one 90-day season: leader scripts, host-home guides, the promo pack, your NORMConnect campaign set up for you, and the season dashboard. Connect Ignite and the Leader Training Day are both in the kit — see the runway below.
The free public afternoon that fills the season and surfaces your group leaders. Free to attend, always — a church may not charge for it.
One day certifies your own pastors and Family Life leaders to run the season. Recertification is $35 per leader, per year.
Opening Sabbath → 12 weekly sessions → Closing Sabbath → Multiply. That is one SDA quarter — group curriculum for the other three quarters is available, so your groups keep meeting all year.
No separate charge for any of it. The only participant cost is the workbook registration below, and the church keeps that.
Folds two through seven Available now The Threshold, the five R’s, Aligned for every member, the Circles, the care rail, and Shepherd Care — the system that keeps working after the season ends.
Now included Opening with the pilot
Banded by membership, never per seat.
You buy workbooks from us at wholesale and charge the registration you already charge — typically $30, and the room money is yours, not ours. At those numbers a 40-person season leaves roughly $600 in your account. The season funds its own materials.
Fully digital — small group leader guides and the weekly lessons delivered in the app. Nothing to print, nothing to ship, no per-participant cost. One kit licences every group in your church for that quarter, so the groups your season formed keep meeting all year instead of dissolving after Celebration Sabbath.
Only for the churches that want them. Ask us and we will set them up alongside your annual.
Budgets by ministry, giving by category, tithe and offerings remitted, board and treasurer reports — and your money shown next to the needs it meets. Reporting only: NORM Connect never holds or moves money. A member’s giving is seen by the treasurer alone.
Arrival cards, raised hands and reminders by text as well as email. Quiet hours and one-tap opt-out on every message.
Beyond the free core certificate: deeper courses for children’s, youth and vulnerable-adult ministry leaders.
Talk to us to add any of these — they are not on self-serve checkout yet.
Six of the seven folds cost nothing extra. They are the system, not add-ons — the annual carries all of them. Leader certification comes with any season kit or annual licence; recertification is $35 per leader, per year (renew →). Churches certifying outside a licence pay $350 per leader (certify a leader →).
This does not ask your board to approve something new. It fits where your church already spends — Evangelism, Family Life, or Discipleship Ministries — lines that have been approved, every year, for decades. Most churches run it out of Evangelism, and the comparison below is why.
A conference can use its own budget to put this program in the hands of its churches — that is what the conference licence is for. Under a licence the field carries the system, and a local church buys only its season kit and workbooks. It is worth asking your conference before you ask your board, because this is exactly the kind of thing a conference already funds and pushes down to its churches.
Mailers, a visiting evangelist, a rented venue, two weeks of nights. Notoriously poor retention, and when it is over nobody can tell you which of the people who came are still there in March.
Your own members lead it, it runs on the Sabbaths you already keep, and it ends with a scorecard: guests connected, groups still meeting, families reporting change, baptisms, and how fast a raised hand actually got answered.
Same budget line. A fraction of the number. And for the first time, evidence at the end of it.
Fair question, and one nobody selling a church program tends to answer out loud.
Your first season as a Legacy Ministry Partner costs nothing. There is no invoice to dispute, no contract to exit, and no auto-renewal waiting at the end of it.
Ninety days in you hold real numbers, not impressions — how many guests connected, how many groups are still meeting, how fast care actually reached someone.
If the numbers moved, you keep the system at half price for life. If they did not, you walk, and you keep the workbooks, the training, and the certified leaders.
We would rather you run one honest season and tell other pastors the truth about it than sign a church into something that did not fit.
You will be in that room without us. Here is the whole thing in four lines — print this page, or forward the link.
The sensitive tools — discipline and safeguarding — ship off and stay off until your board decides otherwise. That is a setting, not a promise.
Adventist money flows down, not up. A conference funds Family Life and pushes it to the field — and a church board approving a brand-new line item is where good programs go to die. So the conference carries the system, and its churches buy only season kits and workbooks.
The same licence serves a diocese, a Methodist district or annual conference, a presbytery, or a Baptist association — each sees its own level names.
Prove it in one region before the whole field. Every church on the annual, the office dashboard, and the finance roll-up — at a number a president can approve without a committee. Move up to the next band whenever the region grows.
NORMConnect for every church in the field, plus the aggregate health dashboard for the office.
At this band a field pays roughly $750 per church per year for a system a single church licences at $1,800 — and for less than one church spends on one two-week evangelistic series.
A full-sized field. Every church, every dashboard, one renewal instead of eighty.
Large fields, same terms, same single renewal.
Union-scale deployments. Talk to us about phasing it across the field.
You stop selling church by church. The director becomes the buyer, and the field gets one thing instead of forty separate decisions.
The seven folds run at the church. The office sees the aggregate: which congregations are gathering, which are thinning, and which pastor has gone quiet.
Visitors still connected at 90 days, members met after a move, needs against groups, safeguarding coverage, membership statistics and giving roll-ups — totals only, never a person’s record. Finance is included in every licence.
Leader training is included for every church in the field, and recertification stays at $35 per leader, per year. Train-the-trainer means the field runs its own seasons within a year.
Fields differ, and so do budgets. If yours does not fit a band, say so — we would rather price to what the field actually carries than lose a whole conference over a table on a website.
Prices in USD. Legacy Ministry Partners keep 50% off the annual and conference licence for life; terms are limited to the first pilot churches.
