Strong support for smaller churches
Right-sized solutions. Best-in class tools. Designed for every budget.
Most churches are small, yet their call to lead and serve is just as great.
MinistryMatch makes pastoral placement possible for every church through tools that are simple, affordable, and remarkably effective.
Our best-in-class assessments, surveys, and reports guide churches step-by-step to a confident decision. Smaller churches get access to the same professional-grade insights that larger churches use—without ever sacrificing quality or service.
Your pastor just stepped down. Now what?
Pastoral transitions can feel overwhelming, especially for smaller churches without full-time staff or established search processes.
It’s a moment filled with both uncertainty and opportunity.
Church leaders want to move forward wisely, but the process can be confusing, slow, and emotionally draining.
MinistryMatch guides you through the process, bringing order and clarity to this season.
