Case Study: Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Brevard achieves simplified parish management and streamlined giving with ParishSOFT

Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Brevard - Customer Case Study

Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Brevard, NC (500–550 families) struggled with a small staff and an outdated parish management system that made tracking sacraments, faith formation, member data, and year-end giving statements time-consuming. Although the parish had purchased ParishSOFT earlier, implementation had stalled, and the existing Parish Data Systems software was hard to use and lacked integrated faith formation and easy reporting.

By mid-2014 Sacred Heart implemented ParishSOFT Family Suite modules—Family Directory, Offering & Pledges, and later Religious Education—transferring records and centralizing data. The switch delivered faster contribution statements, secure user permissions for delegated tasks, seamless updates between faith formation and the family database, and simpler year-to-year transitions; the parish is now exploring online giving and the My Own Church portal, and praises ParishSOFT’s strong customer support.
