People

The people behind the ministry, connected to the work.

When your people's information is accurate — profiles, family relationships, and access scoped to the right people — worship, communication, and the rest of your ministry can rely on it.

What People does today

One roster, connected to everything your church does

A single roster

One directory for members, volunteers, families, and Bible Experience participants — not separate spreadsheets for every ministry.

Family relationships

Link spouses, parents, and children on a person's profile. Sibling relationships are inferred automatically from shared parents, so you don't have to enter them twice.

Guardianship for kids in your programs

A child in Bible Experience or another youth program can have a guardian linked to their profile — even one who doesn't otherwise use Tentmaker58 — so leaders can maintain the correct adult relationship for communication and youth-program workflows.

Church membership status, tracked honestly

Real denominational status — baptized member, regular attendee, visitor — is tracked separately from system access, so a baptized child doesn't need a login to be correctly recorded.

Access scoped by role and organization

People-management access is limited by organization and permission, helping leaders work only with the records they are authorized to manage.

Church offices, tracked over time

Know who's currently serving as Pastor, Head Elder, Church Clerk, or another church office — and see the full history of who's held it before them, kept separate from system permissions.

Bring your existing list in with confidence

Import a church membership spreadsheet and Tentmaker58 reconciles it against people you already have — flagging likely matches for you to confirm before anything is created, so an import never quietly duplicates your roster.

Built for the people who connect your church's roster to its ministry

Church Clerk

Keep membership details, families, and church-office history accurate.

Administrator

Manage one reliable roster with access scoped to the right people.

Program Leader

Reach participants and guardians without maintaining another spreadsheet.

People questions

Can a guardian who doesn't use Tentmaker58 still be linked to a child's profile?

Yes. A guardian relationship can be recorded even if that adult never creates an account.

What happens to our existing membership spreadsheet when we import it?

Tentmaker58 reconciles it against existing people and flags likely matches for confirmation before creating records.

Does People replace eAdventist?

No. eAdventist remains the system of record for official membership; People supports day-to-day roster work around it.
