Simplifying sacramental
administration.
Don’t burn out, burn bright
Why I built this:
…To free you and your staff – Fr. Josh
Pastoral Parish simplifies and automates necessary processes relating to sacramental administration and pastoral care. It was developed by a parish priest with his needs and the needs of his staff in mind. By reducing administrative burdens and increasing access to information, we hope this software will help you build a more pastoral parish.

How it Works:
How It Started
Several years ago a young priest, Fr. Josh McCarty, decided to apply his interest in software development to create a tool to help him meet his needs as pastor of a Catholic parish. While software solutions existed relating to his parish’s business needs – areas of concern such as accounting, financial administration, donor administration and payment processing – no tool existed to help him with the complexities of sacramental administration, much less to facilitate pastoral engagement.
Convinced that personal relationships and grace conferred through the Sacraments are at the heart of parish life, he set out to develop an application more directly serving the mission of his parish. Pastoral Parish is the result of that insight and the work that has flowed from it.
