I am absolutely delighted with Ministry Scheduler Pro. I cannot believe that what used to take me two hours is done in seconds! The software is so user-friendly that I was able to run schedules with hardly a learning curve.

Overall improved satisfaction with scheduling process and most notably finding subs. Keep up the great work!

MSP has changed my life drastically in terms of the amount of time I spend scheduling. I feel like it has allowed me to focus on more important aspects of the ministries.
— Kristi Gonsalves-McCabe, Regis University (Denver, CO)
Doing scheduling by hand is always a confusing, hit or miss, and thankless task. MSP has really made scheduling easier for staff and for volunteers alike.
— Br. John Westaway, Church of St. Paul in the Desert (Palm Springs, CA)
MSP really has been a wonderful addition to my tool chest. I have had many comments from my ministers about how great it is. My coordinators have said that there is much lower percentage of no-shows. The internet access, the "sub request" feature, the profile feature -- they all contribute to the success.
— Mary Dupuis, Holy Spirit Catholic Parish (Great Falls, MT)
Thank you for this great tool for ministry scheduling.
— Mary Malewitz, St. Mary Star of the Sea Church (Jackson, Michigan)
It makes it easier for ministers to be aware of opportunities to volunteer. It also limits the number of "no shows" each week because people can find themselves a sub instead of simply not attending.
— Jeff Mikusky, San Antonio de Padua del Canon (Anaheim, CA)
MSP is one very objective metric that accounts for having much more people involved in ministry.
— Brandon Kraft, University Catholic Center (Austin, TX)

We always appreciate MSP’s fantastic support; it is probably the best I have personally ever experienced!
— Sarah Mikucki, Grace Christian Fellowship (Spokane, WA)
I'm emailing because I wanted to say how much I am liking the new Announcements feature. I love the fact that I have the list of the emails I have sent. It is wonderful to be able to duplicate and reuse them. Prior to the Announcements pane, I would save every email I send through MSP into a folder in my email so that I could copy and paste the email. Why recreate the wheel!
— Maureen Yantz, St. Margaret Church (Bel Air, MD)
MSP has definitely increased participation and made finding subs SO MUCH EASIER!
— Natalie Howell, Living Word Lutheran Church (Katy, TX)
Emailing reminders and making substitution requests online and through email has made it easier for volunteers to participate.

— Deacon Patrick Wilson, Blessed Sacrament Church (Newark, OH)
It is much easier to create the schedules. It is also helpful that the volunteers can request for subs and put in times not available. The app and email reminders are also very helpful.
— Margaret Rasmussen, St. Bernard's Catholic Church (Thief River Falls, MN)
Ministers have been very receptive to the on-line access Ministry Scheduler Pro provides. They enter their availability, request substitutes, and maintain their profiles. Makes it very easy for the ministers to be self-sufficient.
— Jack Heck, Blessed Savior Catholic Church (Milwaukee, WI)
Your program is finally what I've been looking for years. I was able to set it up and manipulate the data without having to read the manual and emailing reminders to the volunteers has always been my dream!
— Olivia Latiano, St. Peter's Catholic Church (Huron, OH)
MSP has given people the opportunity to request subs and accept sub requests on their own. This has made life easier for everyone.
— Cindy Varenkamp, Holy Name (Cedar Lake, IN)
MSP has considerably decreased the amount of time spent scheduling.
— Janell, St. Wenceslaus (Scappoose, OR)
Auto-reminders have made ministers more likely to do the proper preparation for their assignment a week in advance, the Web Terminal Streamlined the process of arranging assignment swaps, and the Emailer function has allowed me to save so much time in creating and sending out important messages to the entire ministry. MSP has also provided me (the Minsitry Coordinator) a centralized database of members of the Ministry and a tool by which to track attendance, as well as simplifying the creation of the creating schedules!
— Geoffe Elias, St. John the Baptist Church (Milpitas, CA)
[MSP has] increased participation of volunteers with the calendar schedule and better use of volunteer's time.
— Becky Snell, St. Martin-in-the-Fields (Keller, TX)
I really enjoy the ease of using MSP, it has saved me a ton of time in scheduling. I also save so much time using the Emailer. It is great!

MSP facilitates ministers getting involved. Being able to keep families together and avoiding scheduling people twice in a weekend is conducive to people getting involved in ministry.
— Deacon Joe Kest, St. Patrick of Heatherdowns (Toledo, OH)
The Ministers find it mush easier to view schedules and made swaps on line.This results in less frustration and better retention. Because the systemdoes the choosing, there is better distribution. So, some Minister who mayonly have 1 or 2 times in a scheduling period now have more and the"regulars" are not overwhelmed as much.
— Tony Unitas, Cathedral of Mary Our Queen (Baltimore, MD)
Nearly one-stop shopping for schedules!
— Karen Slagell, St. Clare of Assisi Episcopal Church (Ann Arbor, MI)

— Carol Fedewa, St. John the Baptist (Howell, MI)
We're recruiting more volunteers (enrollment link), and volunteers like the frequent communications (using emailer) and weekly email about open positions. We love it!
— Angie Kaney, Our Lady of Lourdes Church (Bettendorf, IA)
MSP makes it much easier for our volunteers to request or accept a sub. This program has been well received by our parishioners.
— Larry Sink, St. Andrew's (Roanoke, VA)
MSP has made a huge impact on the way we schedule volunteers for Mass. There are no duplicate assignments and makes it easier for those who cannot serve when scheduled find a replacement.
— Deacon Mike Romaka, Holy Family (Lawton, OK)
MSP has made participating in ministry 100% better. I can now change anything that needs to be changed as soon as someone calls. It is easier to read, for myself as well as the parishioners.

This software will save a tremendous amount of work just by taking care of the scheduling aspect. The ability to email schedules to the workers will be a tremendous asset as we continue to grow as a congregation.

People appreciate the ease with which they can arrange a substitute when needed.

— Maureen Yantz, St. Margaret Church (Bel Air, MD)
So few products do what they claim from wrinkle cream to toilet bowl cleaner, so to find one that really does cut down on time, effort and frustration is wonderful. So much pertinent info is in one spot and at hand, just perfect!
— Margie Whyte, St. Bruno School (Whittier, CA)
We have reduced administrative cost of scheduling by 50% and have better participation by volunteers to fill their empty positions on their own, thereby saving frustration for our administrative assistant and ministry departments heads and reducing no shows.
