3 Reasons Every Ministry in Your Church Needs Their Own Number

What if you could take your communication to the next level, without any extra effort? On Gloo+, you have the capability to claim a separate phone number for all of your ministries at your church—all under your one membership. Gloo's sub-accounts feature has revolutionized how church leaders communicate with their congregations, providing flexibility and precision in messaging.

 

If you haven’t yet explored this option, here are three reasons why every ministry in your church should have its own dedicated phone number.

 

1. Keep Communication Clear and Focused

One of the biggest challenges for any church is ensuring that the right messages reach the right people. When your children’s ministry, worship team, and administrative updates are all coming from the same phone number, it can create confusion. Members might not be sure which messages apply to them, and important updates may get overlooked in the clutter.

 

By giving each ministry its own phone number, you can ensure that the messages sent are always relevant to the recipient. Parents of young children will know that texts from the children's ministry phone number are directly related to their needs. Meanwhile, volunteers in your worship ministry will appreciate receiving updates that are specific to them. This clarity keeps your congregation more engaged and ensures that important information isn’t lost in the shuffle.

 

With Gloo’s subaccount feature, it’s easy to claim different phone numbers for each ministry and assign contact lists specific to that group. This allows you to keep communications clear, focused, and highly relevant to your audience.

 

2. Enhance Personalization and Engagement

People are more likely to respond to messages that feel personalized and directly relevant to their lives. With dedicated phone numbers for each ministry, you can fine-tune your communications to ensure that your messages resonate with the right audience.

 

For example, your children’s ministry can use their phone number to send out texts specifically designed for parents, sharing updates on upcoming events, lesson plans, or even devotionals for families to do together at home. At the same time, your administrative team can use their phone number to send out church-wide announcements or reminders about service times without mixing their messages with ministry-specific updates.

 

This level of personalization helps foster a deeper connection with your congregation, making them feel seen, valued, and more likely to engage with your church's content. Claiming unique phone numbers for each ministry creates a direct line of communication that feels intimate and tailored to their specific interests.

 

3. Streamline Your Communication Process

Managing communications for multiple ministries can become overwhelming when everything funnels through a single phone number. Church leaders need a streamlined way to manage different ministry needs without creating confusion or wasting time juggling multiple messaging systems.

 

By claiming a unique phone number for each ministry, you simplify the entire communication process. Gloo’s subaccounts allow you to manage these phone numbers under one main account, making it easy to switch between ministries, create targeted messages, and send broadcasts to the right audience—all from one place.

 

This organizational structure not only saves time but also ensures that no ministry gets neglected. Each one has its own channel to communicate with its unique group, meaning messages are sent promptly, and each ministry stays engaged with its members. The simplicity of having multiple phone numbers under one account allows church leaders to maintain effective communication without the hassle.

 

Conclusion

Claiming a unique phone number for each ministry within your church is a simple yet powerful way to enhance your communication strategy. With Gloo’s subaccounts, you can easily create dedicated communication channels that keep messages clear, relevant, and organized. The result is a more engaged congregation, more personalized messaging, and a streamlined communication process that saves time and reduces confusion.
